Shacktown Reunion Shooting Update | Birmingham News

Tuscaloosa’s heat just got a whole lot hotter after a brutal shooting at the Shacktown Reunion that left seven people injured — including a 12-year-old and a 17-year-old in critical condition. A second suspect, 22-year-old Kemarkus Antonio Allen, now faces seven counts of first-degree assault and a probation violation. The first arrest, Keyontae Jones, originally charged with eight counts, was reduced after one victim falsely claimed injury. Authorities are probing possible gang ties and multiple shooters, with the FBI and U.S. Marshals on board — and a $10,000 reward for tips. This is a fast-moving, high-stakes investigation with more arrests possible as they dig deeper into what went down that fateful night.
