A teen awaiting trial for shooting at a Montgomery police officer is now charged with capital murder in the slaying of a 21-year-old in Montgomery during a robbery.

Savion Renardo German, 19, is charged with capital murder in the Nov. 17, 2023, slaying of Tanario Abner.

German was taken into custody Friday by the U.S. Marshals Gulf Coast Regional Fugitive Task Force.

He remains held without bond in the Montgomery County Detention Center.

Police and fire medics found Abner after responding at about 10:39 p.m. that Friday to a call to the 3400 block of Fountain Circle. Abner was pronounced dead at the scene.

German is the second suspect charged in Abner’s death.

The first suspect’s name has not been released because of his age, but the 16-year-old was taken into custody in February when he allegedly showed up at Church of Highlands in Pelham with a gun.

An adult and eight juveniles arrived at the church in two separate vehicles, authorities said.

A church volunteer was shuttling people from their vehicles to the building.

The volunteer saw that one of the juvenile males had a firearm in his waistband and informed him that he could not have the weapon inside the church.

The juvenile male complied and exited the shuttle and placed the firearm in a vehicle.

Immediately, police said, the adult and seven remaining juveniles exited the shuttle, and a juvenile female drove away in the vehicle containing the firearm and returned a few minutes later.

Pelham officers were alerted to the teen male with the firearm and made contact with him.

The 16-year-old was taken into custody without incident and remains held without bond.

German at the time of his arrest Friday was already awaiting trial on charges from earlier this year – unlawful breaking and entering a vehicle, discharging a firearm into an occupied building or vehicle, and attempted murder for shooting at a Montgomery police corporal “while he was on the ground.”

According to court records, those charges stemmed from a Feb. 12 incident where police responded to a report of German reportedly breaking into a car at Walmart. German fled and a foot chase followed, which is when shots were fired at police.

The officer was not injured.
