A Saturday evening cookout at Lawson Field in Bessemer, Alabama, turned deadly on April 30, 2016, when an argument at the gathering escalated into a physical fight and gunfire. Three people were struck; 39-year-old Bessemer resident Robert King Williams was pronounced dead at the scene and two other victims were taken to hospital with gunshot injuries.

Bessemer police opened a homicide investigation that night, interviewing witnesses who had been at the cookout. Investigators said the shooting appeared to arise from the argument rather than being random. In the years after the incident, no arrests or suspect identifications in Williams’s death have been announced.
