Authorities have released the name of a man shot to death during an argument inside an east Birmingham home.

Birmingham police late Wednesday identified the slain man as Jeremy Andrews. He was 33.

Officers were dispatched shortly before 8:30 a.m. to house in the 7800 block of Seventh Court South on a report of a person shot.

Officer Truman Fitzgerald said they arrived to find the shooting victim unresponsive inside the home. Birmingham Fire and Rescue Serviced pronounced the man dead on the scene.

There were at least two young children in the home when deadly shooting took place.

Fitzgerald said the investigation shows a woman and a man were involved in a domestic argument.

Andrews then arrived at the house and got into an argument with the same man.

It was during the second argument Andrews was shot.

Police initially said the suspect fled the scene but later provided an update saying he was taken into custody at the scene.

The 41-year-old suspect is being held in the Birmingham City Jail on a 48-hour hold as the investigation continues.

According to Fitzgerald, both the victim and the suspect were armed.

Andrews is Birmingham’s 18th homicide this year. Of those, one has been ruled justifiable and therefore not deemed criminal.

In all of Jefferson County, there have been 23 homicides including the 18 in Birmingham.

Anyone with additional information is asked to call Birmingham homicide investigators at 205-254-1764 or Crime Stoppers at 205-254-7777.
