I hope an pray somebody in this kids family get this kid to come unto Christ now, this is one of his last chances,and I pray for the victims family that the young man soul was saved,but this kid thats alive can make amends with Christ Jesus an with the victims family by accepting The Lord as his savior,Christ will show the young man what to do after that this is just satan as his worst,but The lord defeats him everytime.

curfews, added police presence, we can try everything under the sun,, BUT,, untill some caring for someone other than yourself and the value of a life is taught at HOME we will never change the way these kids are behaving..

Some of you guys are confused. Arguing shouldn't justify this 18 year old shooting someone. Staying up at 3:15a shouldn't justify this 18 year old killing this guy. I can't believe he hit an 18 month old girl prior to this. It makes me sick to read this. What happened to beefing up security downtown?

This same young man runover and killed a 18 month old little girl in November of 2008 while driving his mother truck without a driver licenses in Prichard, AL. He nor his mother had any remorse for him killing the little girl. Now he has killed someone else lets see if he gets away with this Murder too! He is a endangerment to society and justice needs to be serve for both victims in their families.

I HOPE ALL OF THE SECURITY STAFF IN THE NIGHT CLUBS OF MOBILE SEE THE SEVERITY OF THIS TRAGEDY AND TAKE WHATEVER MEASURES ARE NECESSARY IN ORDER TO MAKE OUR CLUB SCENE SAFE, WEAPON AND VIOLENCE FREE.

The headlines should read 'Mobile Police Investigating Downtown MURDER'! A "shooting" would imply only a shooting and not someone dead. I agree with H2L.... I am checking out too.

So much for the crack down downtown...a block from the MPD sub station! Somebody needs to explain the reCaptcha. I wasn't aware that automated programs wanted to abuse this site. Local 15 will lose their entire base because of this...Bye, Bye!!!
