A late‑summer motorcycle club gathering outside the Showstoppers Motorcycle Club on Coosa Street in Birmingham turned deadly on August 30, 2014. A violent confrontation between rival clubs escalated into a gunfight that left 47‑year‑old Showstoppers member Wilbert Hawkins dead and 48‑year‑old Steven Hicks of the Wheels of Soul Motorcycle Club also killed; two other people were wounded.

Investigators linked the shootings to an ongoing feud between rival motorcycle clubs and said members of the Outcast Motorcycle Club arrived armed and initiated the confrontation. Authorities arrested James Edward Armstrong III in Rockdale County, Georgia, and charged him with capital murder in the deaths of Hawkins and Hicks; he was extradited to Alabama for trial. The jury returned a not guilty verdict in November 2016, so no conviction tied to these killings stands.
