A new FBI report shows a slight drop in active shooter incidents in 2023, but overall they are up 89% over the last 5 years.
Jarrette Isaiah Rodgers, 34, is in Dale County Jail charged with the murder of Cornelius Crittendon after being arrested last week by the Ozark Police Department, said Ozark Director of Public Safety Chief Charles Ward.
“The arrest of Mr. Rodgers was the result of the culmination of processing numerous search warrants, gathering new evidence utilizing advancements in modern technology, and reinterviewing individuals associated with the case,” said Ward. “Mr. Rodgers was identified as a person of interest and subsequently interviewed, during which he disclosed that the motive for the murder was robbery, which tragically resulted in Mr. Crittendon being shot to death.
“We will continue to pursue all leads and evidence in this case to ensure that those responsible are brought to justice,” Ward added, crediting the Dale County Sherriff’s Office and the Alabama State Bureau of Investigations for their mutual-aid assistance.
