Multiple children were killed and many others were injured after a shooting at a teenager’s birthday party in Dadeville, Alabama, Saturday evening.


Dadeville Police, the Tallapoosa County Sheriff’s Office, and Alabama Law Enforcement Agency’s State Bureau of Investigation, among others, responded to a building near the intersection of East Green Street and North Broadnax Street at around 10:30 p.m. on reports of a shooting, Fox News and WRBL reported.

Although law enforcement agents have not officially released the number of people killed or injured in the incident, photos taken by witnesses at the scene showed “the bodies of at least six teenagers on the ground,” according to Fox News. The witness observed white sheets covering their bodies.

The shooting also injured others with officers and deputies at the scene reporting at least 20 people wounded, majority of them teenagers, WRBL stated. The injured victims were transported to a local hospital for further care.

At least four dead in mass shooting at teen's birthday party in Dadeville

Alex Gladden, Montgomery Advertiser


DADEVILLE — As the sun rose in Alabama on Sunday, police continued to swarm downtown Dadeville, piecing together evidence from a Saturday night mass shooting that left four dead and many injured.

Investigators spent the night working the crime scene in the old Bank of Dadeville, a brick building at 220 N. Broadnax St. that was converted two years ago into Mahogany Masterpiece dance studio.

Teenagers gathered at the studio Saturday night to celebrate a birthday. Gunfire erupted just after 10:30 p.m.

For more than eight hours after the incident, law enforcement released no details about the shooting, the victims or the suspect. Dadeville was trending on social media, where an image that showed five people collapsed inside a venue circulated amid pleas from some users to take down the image.

Still other users on social media recorded video at a nearby hospital where families waiting for news on injured loved ones.

Dadeville football player bound for Jacksonville State killed at sister’s birthday party, pastor says

William Thornton and Mike Cason  |  Apr. 16, 2023  |  11:32 a.m.




A pastor in Dadeville said as many as 250 people were outside an east Alabama hospital early this morning to hear word of loved ones injured or killed in a shooting at a 16th birthday party.

Ben Hayes is the senior pastor at Dadeville First Baptist Church, and is team chaplain of Dadeville High School and chaplain of Dadeville police.

“It was a very sad, sad scene,” he said. “A very rough night.”

Four people are dead and as many as 20 reportedly injured following a shooting at a birthday party in Dadeville Saturday night, according to multiple reports.

Hayes said one of the victims was Philstavious “Phil” Dowdell, a Dadeville football player who had recently committed to Jacksonville State University to play wide receiver. The birthday party was for Dowdell’s sister, according to Hayes.

Gang-related?
A terrible occurrence, but you know if the shooter was White it would have been blared out within minutes. There had to be lots of witnesses yet we still haven't heard one word as to the shooter or even if the shooter used an infamous black rifle.

It's those democrats again.  Sub-Saharan Africa like every urban area in the US is full of democrats. I hear this was a 16th birthday party/baby shower. Democrats tend to have children as teenagers and keep on going. According to the FBI, democrat men rape 100 white women every day in this country. That's one every fifteen minutes. The inverse of this is a statistical zero. Just democrats behaving like democrats.

Just sick of the obvious being ignored by people who feign giving a damn about crime. You can say anything but the truth. That said, being called a racist by a dumbass doesn't hurt my feelings in the least. It's the price of being honest instead of a greasy liar.

Welcome to The Briefing Room @ccoffer   Honesty and integrity are most welcome.
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

You are posting on an entire category dedicated to Crime and Punishment.  Clearly, this crime is not being ignored considering that there is a thread covering it.  At this point, there are no suspects, no arrests, and no motive for the shooting.  We know that this was a Sweet-16 birthday party and that the older brother of the person celebrating was killed.  He was an honor student preparing for his first year of college.

Since demographics seems to be of interest to you, Tallapoosa County is 69% white.  It's residents has a medium income over $50k.  Less than 14% of its residents live below the poverty line.  68% of family households are led by husband and wife (two-parent married).

It's median, not medium, by the way. There is a very relevant part of this crime that you completely left out. I'm just wondering why. Why is saying the truth so bad? I good and damn well know the suspect is a negro because it's the one thing the story goes to great pains to leave out. There is no virtue in dishonesty and ignorance is not a point of view.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

I good and damn well the suspect is a negro because it's the one thing the story goes to great pains to leave out. There is no virtue in dishonesty and ignorance is not a point of view.

While the relevant part you point out had been more than once the subject of speculation here, simply because basic descriptions of suspects in the media (or names, when known) seem to be consistently left out of early accounts, waiting for confirmation or even a mug shot deflects a lot of the accusations the media are dodging. Of course, anyone possibly from the left shooting up anywhere doesn't fit the narrative of 'white-christian-rightwing-racist-homophobic-MAGA-neonazi'-"hater", so those stories get buried in a heartbeat.

I won't assume a demographic, but past experience generally indicates that a Caucasian shooter would have had that fact mentioned in the news.

This incident sprang from an argument at a birthday party, and the fact that 28 were injured and 4 killed means there was a lot of shooting going on in a 50 person party, and and it is highly likely that a more comprehensive description of the suspect(s) could have been issued. It's also likely that the police know exactly who they are looking for.

You are correct.  An egregious error on my part.


There is a very relevant part of this crime that you completely left out. I'm just wondering why.

I told you what I know.  I have nothing else.  I have combed local news channels and have found out nothing additional.  So no, I am not holding anything from you.


I good and damn well the suspect is a negro because it's the one thing the story goes to great pains to leave out.

There is a helluva lot in this story that is missing, which the local police readily admit.  They have been in the process of interviewing witnesses for quite some time.  This isn't some story in some major metropolitan area.  This is small town America - a quiet town on Lake Martin which is a fishing destination for all surrounding counties.  How about we take a moment and wait for the facts to come in before making generalized statements about certain racial groups.  Okay?


There is no virtue in dishonesty and ignorance is not a point of view.

Where is the dishonesty?  Where is the ignorance?  And what does any of this have to do with '100 white women getting raped every day in this country'?  This is a tragic shooting.  Kids got shot at a birthday party.  Four of them died.  Let's focus on that.

Brutal Mass Shooting in Alabama, Soon to Be Memory-Holed, Leaves Four Dead, 20 Injured
By Kevin Downey Jr. 2:36 PM on April 16, 2023

Twenty-four people were shot Saturday night at a Sweet 16 birthday party in Dadeville, Ala., population 3,000.

Quote
FACT-O-RAMA! A mass shooting is when four or more people are shot, not including the shooter, in a fluid situation. Hence, when a transgender shooter killed three people — and himself — in 2017, it was not considered to be a mass shooting.

There are few details, but sources confirm that four people are dead and 20 are wounded, most of them teens.

The shooting took place at the Mahogany Masterpiece Dance Studio around 10:30 p.m.

Quote
FACT-O-RAMA! A reporter from Alexander City Outlook stated that the police were being “tight-lipped” regarding the identity of the shooter and whether anyone is in custody; however, they claim there is no danger to the public at this time.
