Suspect of I-165 shooting denied bond

UPDATE (8:57 p.m.) : In the bond hearing, prosecutors called a Violent Crimes Detective for the Mobile County Sheriff’s Office to the stand as a witness.

According to the detective, deputies responded to the Jan. 15 I-165 shooting after receiving the call at around 6 p.m. The call originally came into the Mobile Police Department, but the Sheriff’s Office was the one to take the lead since it was out of the MPD’s jurisdiction. Upon arrival, detectives found a 15-year-old female had been killed and a 9-year-old male had been injured. Both were taken to Women and Children’s Hospital.
