Nightclub shooting leaves two women dead in Birmingham

Two women were killed in a shooting at a nightclub. Afterwards, shots were fired at a car that had victims inside and had arrived at a hospital.

The shooting happened at Aria Restaurant and Lounge in Birmingham, Alabama, on Labor Day.

Soon after, at around 2. 17am on Monday, a car of light brownish color came to the University of Alabama at Birmingham Hospital to get assistance for people who had been shot.

Another car drove up next to the Chevrolet Tahoe and started shooting at it.
Someone from the University of Alabama at Birmingham Hospital said that shots were fired at a vehicle that was coming to the emergency room. The people in the vehicle were thought to have been hurt in a shooting that happened somewhere else before.

The person who shot quickly ran away from where it happened.

Witnesses said they heard several gunshots that sounded like the noise of hitting iron pipes.

Gunshots hit a window of a hospital and also a medical vehicle.

A police officer named Truman Fitzgerald said that five people got shot at a nightclub on Fifth Avenue North in Birmingham.

Two people, a 24-year-old woman from Center Point and a 33-year-old woman from Birmingham, were declared dead at the medical facility, says the Jefferson County Coroner’s Office. Their names were not disclosed immediately.

The hospital was locked down.

At the same time, the club announced on Instagram that they would be hosting a Labor Day Rehab Sunday event on Sunday. The club and the hospital, which is the biggest emergency center in Alabama, are only about a five-minute drive away from each other.

The family of the female victim were very upset when they were told about her death at around 5. 30am, as reported by AL. com

The women were the 90th and 91st people who were killed in Birmingham this year. In Jefferson County, 127 people have been killed.

According to WSFA, no one was arrested right away.
