Birmingham Shooting Leaves One Dead | Huntsville News

A shocking murder unfolded in Birmingham Wednesday morning when 51-year-old Derrick Earl Hunt allegedly shot and killed 41-year-old Andrew Hamilton during a reported burglary. Witnesses heard at least eight gunshots as Hamilton, who was not inside the targeted home at the time of the shooting, was struck and died before noon. Though Hunt—who isn’t even the homeowner—was arrested later that day without bond, investigators are still piecing together how this deadly incident unfolded in a neighborhood already reeling from violence.
