On September 9, 2018, 20-year-old Evan Mikale Wilson of Tuskegee was shot and killed in the parking lot of a McDonald’s near Auburn University after a dispute escalated into deadly violence. Four other people were injured in the incident. Wilson is described as a young Black male.

A 17-year-old male from nearby Opelika was arrested and charged with murder in connection with the shooting; prosecutors chose to charge him as an adult. Authorities did not publicly release the teen’s name at the time of arrest. Reports describe the shooting as the culmination of a prior altercation rather than a random attack. Details about the trial, conviction, or sentencing have not been readily available.
