The shooting occurred within weeks of two high-profile mass shootings in Tennessee and Kentucky.
April 16 - Four people were killed and multiple others injured in a shooting on Saturday night that was tied to a birthday party in the small town of Dadeville, Alabama, the state law enforcement agency said on Sunday.
The shooting occurred around 10:34 p.m. on Saturday, according to the agency. Officials provided no information about what led to the shooting in the town with a population of around 3,000, and it was not known if any suspects had been taken into custody. Tallapoosa County Schools Superintendent Raymond Porter said at the news conference that counseling would be provided at area schools on Monday, and asked local clergy to help families through the situation.
Alabama Governor Kay Ivey said in a Twitter post on Sunday morning that she was staying "closely updated" by law enforcement as details emerged.
