On the evening of December 13, 2023, 25-year-old Keithan Parker of Pinson was killed in a targeted shooting in Birmingham’s Norwood Bottoms. The attack also killed 19-year-old Kayla Hall of Hanceville and left a third woman with life-threatening injuries. All three were shot in the 1700 block of 32nd Place North.

After the shooting the surviving woman drove the victims in a white Ford Focus, which was riddled with bullet holes, to a Chevron on 12th Avenue North seeking help. Birmingham Fire and Rescue found Parker and Hall inside the vehicle with apparent gunshot wounds; both were pronounced dead at the scene. The third victim was taken to UAB Hospital.

No arrests have been announced and investigators say witnesses who have not yet come forward may hold key information. A reward — increased to $10,000 after a contribution from Parker’s family — is being offered for information leading to an arrest. If anyone knew Keithan or has information about the shooting, please contact investigators.
