TeMarcus Ormarn McMullen, known to some as Marco, was 19 when he was shot in the early morning hours of December 28, 2019. Officers responded to 2626 Court R Ensley around 4 a.m. after reports of gunfire and found McMullen unresponsive with a gunshot wound. He was taken to UAB Hospital and pronounced dead upon arrival.

Two other people were hurt in the same incident: one suffered a non-life-threatening gunshot wound and was taken to a local hospital in a private vehicle, and a third was grazed by a bullet and treated at the scene. The circumstances that led to the shooting were not immediately clear to investigators.

Born October 23, 2000, McMullen grew up in the Birmingham City School System and enjoyed basketball; he was remembered for a warm, caring, competitive spirit, a sense of humor, and loyalty. No arrests had been announced and authorities had not publicly identified any suspects as the Homicide Unit appealed for information.

If anyone knew TeMarcus, was present that night, or has information that could help investigators, please come forward.
