U.S. Army soldiers arrested, charged with selling sensitive military information to China
Two current U.S. Army soldiers, and one former soldier, were arrested this week and charged with conspiring to obtain and sell secret government information to China.
According to an indictment filed Wednesday with the U.S. District Court of Oregon, health services administrator 1st Lt. Li Tian conspired with former servicemember Ruoyu Duan to obtain information about U.S. military operations.
The indictment says Lt. Tian gathered information on military tactics and technology, before passing along the information to Mr. Duan in exchange for money. The information dealt with Army technical manuals and armored vehicles like the Bradley and Stryker.
