Shooting At Alabama Bonfire Party Kills 1 Man And Injures 6 Others

THEODORE, Ala. (AP) — One man was killed and six juveniles were injured Friday night in a shooting in coastal Alabama.

The victims were attending a bonfire, Mobile police said, at an address that business and property records identify as a body shop and trucking company. The business is in an industrial part of Theodore, south of the Mobile city limits.

Witnesses told WKRG-TV that roughly 100 people were at the party. They said people drove away shooting guns from their vehicles.

One man, whom police haven't identified, was killed. Two victims younger than 18 were taken to hospitals by ambulance, police said, while four other victims younger than 18 arrived at hospitals in personal vehicles. The seriousness of their injuries is unknown.

Police said they are still investigating what happened.

A phone message and an email to the business were not immediately returned Saturday.
