A 16-year-old boy is in custody, accused of shooting two people in Birmingham earlier this week.

The teen is charged with two counts of attempted murder, Birmingham police announced Friday.

The department’s Crime Reduction Team and Narcotics Unit took the suspect into custody in the 1500 Block of 20th Street North, said Officer De’Rell Freeman.

Police have not released his name because of his age.

South Precinct officers were dispatched to UAB Hospital Monday when two victims – a male and female – showed up at the emergency room with gunshots wounds.

Their injuries were not life-threatening.

Freeman said investigators learned the victims were injured when someone shot into their vehicle in the 1500 block of F.L. Shuttlesworth Drive in north Birmingham. They then drove themselves to the hospital.

The victims were able to provide details that led to the Jefferson County District Attorney’s Office issuing the two attempted murder warrants and a warrant for shooting into an occupied vehicle.

The teen is being held in the Jefferson County Jail with bond set at $150,000.
