Another mass shooting after a college football game unfolded Saturday night, this time in Birmingham, Alabama. One person was killed and eight others wounded just outside Legion Field after the "Magic City Classic" game, said police, per the AP. The game is an annual matchup between the Alabama A&M University Bulldogs and the Alabama State University Hornets, reports Fox News. Police Chief Michael Pickett said most spectators and families had left the stadium property after the game, but the shooting happened nearby, where vendors were set up along Graymont Avenue.
The circumstances of the shooting were unclear. Police said one person had been detained and transported to police headquarters for questioning, and "multiple weapons" had been found and secured. At least one of those wounded was in critical condition, per Al.com. The shooting comes a week after 11 people were shot following a college football game in Tallahassee, Florida.
