2 suspects arrested and charged with murder in massacre at a Sweet 16 party that left 4 dead and 32 injured, state police official said

Two suspects have been arrested and charged with murder in the deadly rampage Saturday night in downtown Dadeville that left four people dead and at least 15 teenagers wounded, Sgt. Jeremy Burkett of the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency said Wednesday.

The suspects, ages 17 and 16, of Tuskegee, were arrested Tuesday and charged with four counts of reckless murder each, he said.

With dozens of partygoers injured, more charges will be filed, the local District Attorney Mike Segrest said.

“We’ve still got four that are in the hospital, four that are in critical condition,” Segrest said.

Both of the teen suspects will be charged as adults, he said.

Someone probably "disrespected" them.

The sex of the suspects isn't mentioned. I'm going to guess they're male?

What "Important Hollywood Folks" offered money to victims of which mass murder or shooting?

Do you mean the GFM for Ralph Yarl?

I'd be shocked if anyone was ever held responsible for selling these 2 teens what I'd guess were stolen semi-automatic handguns with extended clips.

32 shot. that's a lot of bullets for 2 handguns.

the story that comes out will be predictable.

More are not dead. Give the gun nuts time. At some point, they lose their $hit and start shooting. Chicken-shit cowards.
