KINGSLAND, GA (WAWS/WFOX/WJAX/CNN) - Authorities say two U.S. Navy sailors died of apparent drug overdoses in the last week.
The sailors, Ty Bell and Brian Jarrell, served at Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay and were found dead days apart at a Georgia home.
Police started investigating Thursday after getting a report of an unconscious man at a home.
Jarrell was found dead, face down, in a back bedroom.
The day before his body was discovered, the 25-year-old father was reported missing during a Disney vacation with his family.
According to a report, Jarrell's wife said her husband went back to the hotel room because he wasn't feeling well but disappeared.
His shipmates later found Jarrell at the home owned by Bell.
Friends said Bell, devastated after losing his best friend, was found dead inside the same home just four days later.
A witness said Bell had a white foamy substance coming from his nose.
"It's just shocking, probably the most shocking thing I've ever heard," said Jenette O'Connor, a neighbor. "I just wish there was something that we could've done to foresee what was going to happen, maybe help them."
A Navy official believes the overdoses were a result of cocaine but cautioned there is a toxicology report pending.
