Birmingham Mass Shooting Leaves Four Dead, Dozens Injured

A mass shooting in Birmingham, Alabama, left four people dead and at least 17 injured, prompting local authorities to offer a combined $100,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the perpetrators. The attack occurred outside a popular nightspot in the Five Points South district and is believed to have been a targeted 'hit', with victims caught in the crossfire. Mayor Randall Woodfin emphasized the urgency of capturing those responsible, labeling them as 'cowards' for attacking unarmed individuals in a line outside the venue. Investigators recovered over 100 shell casings and are examining whether machine gun conversion devices were used in the shooting. Among the deceased were two men and a woman found on the sidewalk, with authorities indicating that the attack may have had links to prior criminal activity. The White House has also voiced its support for the ongoing investigation.
