Univ. of Alabama basketball player Darius Miles has actually been charged with capital murder … after authorities state he and another guy were associated with the shooting death of a lady near campus on Sunday early morning.
According to Tuscaloosa Police Capt. Jack Kennedy, the deadly shooting occurred on The Strip … a popular stretch of roadway near the school that’s lined by bars and dining establishments.
Kennedy stated authorities looked out to the shooting at around 1:45 AM … after officers had actually reacted to an automobile at the Walk of Champions at Bryant Denny Stadium.
Kennedy, in a press conference Sunday night, informed media members a 23-year-old female, Jamea Harris, was dead in the automobile. The motorist of the lorry, Kennedy stated, informed officers their automobile had actually been struck by shooting previously in the night … including that they shot back in self-defense.
According to Kennedy, authorities examined security video and spoke with several witnesses — and recognized Miles and 20-year-old Michael Lynn Davis, who’s not associated with the Univ. of Alabama, as the suspects.
