An argument in the predawn hours of September 2, 2023, ended with 38-year-old Anthony Derrell Young shot fatally in the 1200 block of 8th Avenue in Midfield, Alabama. Deputies arrived shortly after 3 a.m., found Young with a gunshot wound, and he was taken to UAB Hospital where he was pronounced dead.

Witnesses at the scene provided descriptions that led deputies to locate and arrest 57-year-old Reuben Gerard Gillam. Gillam was charged with Young’s murder and held in the Jefferson County Jail without bond under Aniah’s Law. Family and friends held a public visitation on September 15, 2023, and a funeral service followed on September 16 at New St. Paul Missionary Baptist Church in Bessemer.

Are there details about that early-morning dispute or the neighborhood that someone can share to help clarify what happened?
