TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) - Weekend gun violence in Tuscaloosa left
a 17-year-old male dead and two other teens recovering from bullet
wounds. Tuscaloosa Police said Desean Finney was shot to death
Saturday night outside a convenience store in Alberta.
Authorities said the shooting was the result of a long-running
feud over a car.
Tuscaloosa Police Chief Ken Swindle said a 15-year-old boy was
charged with Finney's murder.
Meanwhile, two teenage boys were wounded in another shooting
yesterday afternoon. Police think Sunday's incident was revenge for
Finney's murder. The two boys were not seriously injured and police
have been looking for two suspects.
Swindle also said authorities will seek to have the 15-year-old
tried as an adult.
