Tuscaloosa Deputies Investigating Unrelated Black Friday Shooting and Stabbing
Sheriff's deputies in Tuscaloosa County are investigating two unrelated assaults that took place Friday in residential areas off Highway 69 South.
Jack Kennedy, the commander of the multi-agency Tuscaloosa Violent Crimes Unit, said deputies were called to a stabbing on Mimosa Garden Circle and a shooting at Branscomb Apartments Friday afternoon.
In the stabbing, Kennedy said investigators report a man and woman were arguing and the male was stabbed but did not sustain life-threatening injuries. The woman is in police custody, he said.
Less than two miles away, at the apartments off 60th Street, Kennedy said VCU has found a man that was shot in the leg, but said the victim is not currently cooperating with investigators.
Both incidents are breaking news and still developing. Stay connected to the Tuscaloosa Thread for updates as they become available.
