Taevon Jamir Arnold, 31, was fatally shot in downtown Birmingham during a barrage of gunfire on August 8, 2025; a woman was also injured in the incident. Family described Arnold as a loving, giving person who always looked out for others and mourned his untimely death while seeking justice.

Within a day of the shooting authorities arrested a suspect, Terrence Alexander. Days later Alexander was mistakenly released on bond because of a clerical error; prosecutors and the court moved quickly to rectify that mistake and he was taken back into custody. A judge denied bond under Aniah’s Law and Alexander’s probation from prior drug charges was revoked after the new homicide charge.

Does anyone who was in downtown Birmingham on August 8 have information about the shooting or the people involved?
