On the evening of November 19, 2020, a shooting incident occurred at a business located at 708 Poplar Avenue in Huntsville, Alabama. When Huntsville Police officers arrived at the scene around 9:15 p.m., they discovered a male victim inside who had sustained gunshot wounds. The injured individual was identified as 18-year-old DeAndre Denzel Arrington.
He was transported to a local hospital for medical treatment but unfortunately succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced deceased.
The Huntsville Police Department's Major Crimes Unit launched a death investigation into the shooting.
