Michael Ligon, a 31-year-old Black man, was fatally shot in Montgomery, Alabama, on the morning of March 5, 2025. His death was one event in a violent two-day crime spree that included multiple shootings and a car theft that left the city rattled.

According to the timeline laid out in court documents, about 30 minutes after Ligon was killed the same assailant allegedly shot a woman nine times while she sat in her car, striking her in the chest. The violence continued the following day when a 16-year-old was shot in the leg and face and had his car stolen. Investigators linked the attacks to one suspect, identified as Eric Wendell Scott Jr., and charged him with capital murder in Ligon’s killing as well as multiple counts related to the other shootings and the robbery.

The motive for the attacks has not been disclosed. Does anyone have information about Michael Ligon, his activities that morning, or witnesses who saw anything unusual in Montgomery on March 5?
