in downtown Birmingham.


This was in downtown proper, right in a heavily travelled area. Not a good look for the city. Will be interested to see what happened. Hope the officers are ok.

One officer shot multiple times. Suspect robbed a convenience store.

Running gunfight after he shot the initial officer before being killed. 5 blocks is the length being reported this covered.

Looks like it is between the Courthouse and 280. Close to the Downtown YMCA.
