SHOOTING SPREE IN ALABAM KILLS 11 PEOPLE!
A man in his mid-thirties killed around 10 people before taking his own life in Alabama.
"Officer Ricky Morgan rammed his car to distract him and was rewarded with a hail of bullets," said Melton. "One bullet grazed the shoulder of police chief Frankie Lindsey."
A police officer in Geneva said the gunman "shot at several vehicles on the highway and then he shot at Wal-Mart and Piggly Wiggly," a grocery store.
A statement from the Alabama Department of Public Safety said state and local law enforcement agencies had responded to "a series of at least four shooting incidents" involving what was believed to be a lone gunman.
The suspect "left at least nine victims dead before he died from a self-inflicted gunshot," the statement said.
