• Fourth person indicted in 2024 Birmingham nightclub mass shooting (wvtm13.com) — Birmingham residents are seeing new movement in the 2024 Hush Lounge nightclub mass shooting case, as a grand jury has indicted a fourth suspect, Aaron Jones-Turpin, on capital murder charges. The shooting in Five Points South left four people dead and 17 injured, and none of the defendants have gone to trial yet, keeping the case in the public eye.
• Some in Florida and Alabama without power as Isaias moves north to Appalachians and Mid-Atlantic (wbal.com) — Residents in Birmingham are being reminded of Hurricane Isaias' deadly impact after a falling tree killed one person in the city while widespread power outages and damage stretched across Florida and southern Alabama. The storm's remnants are now moving north, with forecasters warning of more heavy rain, flash flooding, and scattered outages across the Southeast and into the Appalachians.
• Hurricane Isaias brings wind, water and destruction • Source New Mexico (sourcenm.com) — Birmingham readers should know Hurricane Isaias caused at least one death in the city when a tree fell on a house, as part of a broader swath of destruction across Alabama and Florida. Hundreds of thousands remain without power, and officials warn that flooding and strong winds could continue across the Southeast as the storm's remnants move inland.
