Police believe the shooters were carrying out a hit on one person and the other victims were caught in the crossfire.


More than 100 shell casings were recovered from the scene, Thurmond added.


Police believe the shooters Saturday used illegal gun conversion devices, the department said in its Sunday news release. These devices can be used to override the trigger mechanism on a gun, so it functions as a machine gun.


While the devices are illegal to own on the federal level, there are no state laws in Alabama banning the devices, Woodfin wrote.

Sounds like beef between two rival group/gangs. Birmingham has rising violent crime while the nation as a whole has falling violent crime.
