Mobile SWAT team takes murder suspect into custody after deadly domestic shooting

A man is dead after Mobile police say another man potentially shot him during a “domestic-related” homicide on Sunday morning.

On Sunday around 8:05 a.m., police officers were notified about a possible shooting by a man barricaded inside a home on the 3900 block of Driftwood Drive East, per a Mobile Police Department statement.

Officers activated a SWAT response. When they entered the home, they found a man was dead, and took the subject into custody.

“Upon further investigation, officers discovered this to be an isolated, domestic-related incident,” said Blake Brown, spokesperson for the police department. “There is no threat to the public.”

Mobile police are investigating what happened and say they expect to release more information on Monday.
