PORTLAND (AP) — A U.S. Army soldier from Oregon who suffered a brain injury in Baghdad last summer has died at a Maryland hospital, The Oregonian reported Monday.

Sgt. Mikeal Wayne Miller, 22, died Sunday, more than a week after his family had doctors remove life support, his mother, Rene Pool, told the newspaper.

Miller was shot in the head July 8 and flown back to the United States. He was treated at Bethesda Naval Hospital and a medical treatment center in California. Later, he was flown back to Bethesda, where he died, his family said.

Miller was a member of the 3rd Squadron, 61st Cavalry, 2nd Brigade Combat Team of the 2nd Infantry Division, said Karen Linne, a spokeswoman for Fort Carson, Colo., where Miller had been based.

Linne said Miller entered the Army in August 2003, a few months after his graduation from South Albany High School.

Miller suffered the injury during his second deployment in Iraq.
