) - Witnesses recall the terrifying moments after back-to-back shootings in downtown Mobile Sunday night, leaving one person dead and multiple people injured.Police responded to Dauphin and Joachim streets shortly after 11 last night after authorities say seven people were shot.
Red and yellow tape blocked off the scene as police searched for clues. Right now, investigators are still looking for a suspect and trying to figure out what led up to this.Calla Ethridge tells me she was working on Dauphin last night when she felt something was off. “Everybody was grouping up going down the streets going back-and-forth. A few little fights broke out here and there. Basically the shots got fired and then everybody started running chaotic crazy but you know I commend all the bars on Loda. They were kind of ready to go, knowing what to do. They locked their people in and kept the people safe. We didn’t let no one in, no one out,” Ethridge said.Less than five minutes after that mass shooting, Mobile police headed a block away to a robbery in a parking lot on Government Street. Investigators say 28 shots were fired there. One witness who wants to remain anonymous says he saw everything unfold outside his camper. “I woke up with three gunshots going off or a couple of shots, looked out my window and saw I guess it was the guy that passed, fall down on the ground just shooting. It was just a grisly scene really,” the witness said.“The perpetrator of the robbery succumbed to his injuries. The victim of the robbery was also injured, but has been treated and released,” Jackson said. Chief Jackson also says 45-50 officers were moved to Dauphin and Joachim minutes before all the shots were fired. He says they do have surveillance video and are reviewing it. In the meantime, he urges anyone with information to call police.MPD: Woman dies after Wesley Avenue shooting; officials say off-duty Prichard officer involved ‘What planet did you come from to act like this:’ Judge scolds alleged victim and defendant over social media videosGulf Shores prepares for 47th annual Mardi Gras with upsurge in parade entries
