Roderious Lee White was 31 when he was shot late on the night of November 24, 2015, in the 800 block of 45th Place North in northeast Birmingham. Officers responding to a 911 call found him lying on a curb with two gunshot wounds; he was taken to UAB Hospital but did not survive. The Jefferson County Coroner’s Office identified him the next morning.

Initial public reports from November 25, 2015, said Birmingham police were searching for a shooting suspect and that homicide detectives had taken over the investigation. Those contemporaneous accounts did not name a suspect, offer a motive, or report any arrest. City homicide-data materials describe an Open case as not solved and distinguish that from cases Cleared by Arrest, and no confirmed arrest or court resolution in White’s killing could be verified.

If anyone knew Roderious White, his whereabouts that night, or has information about the shooting on 45th Place North, please share what is known with Birmingham homicide detectives.
