BIRMINGHAM POLICE INVESTIGATING WHAT LED TO A SHOOTING TODAY THAT KILLED A WOMAN IN THE CITY\u2019S SOUTH PARK, NEAR SOUTH PRATT NEIGHBORHOOD. THANKS FOR JOINING US AT FOUR. I\u2019M GUY RAWLINGS AND I\u2019M BRITTANY DECKER. THANKS FOR BEING HERE WITH US. THE SHOOTING HAPPENED A LITTLE AFTER NOON TODAY. MICHAEL HIGDON IS AT THE BREAKING NEWS DESK WITH WHAT WE KNOW AT THIS HOUR. MICHAEL. SO THIS HAPPENED IN THE 2000 BLOCK OF 10TH STREET WHEN OFFICERS GOT TO THE SCENE, THEY FOUND A WOMAN WHO WAS SHOT, AND SHE WAS PRONOUNCED DEAD ON SCENE. I WANT TO SHOW YOU VIDEO FROM THE SCENE. MULTIPLE UNITS RESPONDED AND POLICE WERE SEEN TALKING TO NEIGHBORHOOD NEIGHBORS IN THE AREA. OFFICERS SAY A MAN HAD CALLED 911 AND SAID SOMEONE WAS AT HIS HOUSE AND SHOTS WERE FIRED. INVESTIGATORS SAY MULTIPLE SHOTS WERE FIRED, BUT COULDN\u2019T CONFIRM JUST HOW MANY. RIGHT NOW, INVESTIGATORS ARE WORKING TO DETERMINE IF THE TWO PEOPLE KNEW ONE ANOTHER. IF THIS WAS SOME KIND OF DOMESTIC SITUATION OR A POSSIBLE BREAK-IN, THEY\u2019RE STILL INVESTIGATING. POLICE ALSO SAID IT\u2019S UNCLEAR IF THE MAN CALLED 911 BEFORE OR AFTER THE SHOOTING ITSELF, BUT HE DID REMAIN ON SCENE. THAT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT THE SHOOTER DID REMAIN ON SCENE, AND HE IS IN CUSTODY, AND HE HAS BEEN TRANSPORTED TO THE POLICE HEADQUARTERS FOR QUESTIONING. WE STILL WANT TO POINT OUT THAT BPD WILL REMAIN COMMITTED TO SOLVING ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS WITHIN OUR CITY. WE\u2019RE REMAINING LOCKED IN AND FOR ANY CRIME THAT IS COMMITTED, REGARDLESS OF HOW MINOR OR HOW LARGE IT IS, BPD REMAINS COMMITTED TO SOLVING ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS WITHIN OUR CITY. NOW, NO CHARGES HAVE BEEN FILED JUST YET, AND THE WOMAN\u2019S IDENTITY HAS\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>Woman fatally shot in Birmingham&#8217;s South Pratt neighborhood<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/1763083092_150_wvtm.png\" class=\"lazyload lazyload-in-view branding\" alt=\"WVTM logo\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\n\t\t\tUpdated: 6:01 PM CST Nov 13, 2025\n\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wvtm13.com\/article\/hearst-television-news-policy-statements\/14471973\" class=\"editorial-standards border-left\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Editorial Standards \u24d8<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tBirmingham police are investigating a woman&#8217;s shooting death in the city&#8217;s South Pratt neighborhood Thursday.Officers were called after 12:15 p.m. to the 2000 block of 10th Street on a report of person shot.When they arrived they found a woman who appeared to have been shot.
