Nine people were shot, one of them fatally, shortly before 8 p.m. Saturday near Birmingham, Alabama’s Legion Field, the site of the Magic City Classic football game.
\n\nThe New York Post noted the Classic “the largest Historically Black College and University football game in the US.”
\n\nThe shots were fired on an avenue “behind the south endzone stands of the stadium,” leaving one dead and eight people with non-life-threatening injuries.
\n\nBirmingham Mayor Randall Woodfin (D) used a Facebook post to promise anonymity to anyone who may be able to help law enforcement identify the shooter(s) in the incident.
