Man Accused Of Shooting Seven People Taken Into Custody In Perdido

May 25, 2010

A man accused of shooting seven people at a weekend party was taken into custody today by deputies and U.S. Marshals near Perdido, Ala., just northwest of Nokomis, Fla.

Investigators have said the shooting may have been related to an ongoing feud over a woman between Butler and one of the victims.

Butler surrendered without incident to members of the U.S. Marshal’s Gulf Coast Regional Task Force and the Baldwin County Sheriff’s Office. He is being held in the Baldwin County Corrections Center in Bay Minette.

    REGARDING:
    “. . . . the shooting may have been related to an ongoing feud over a woman between Butler and one of the victims.”

    Women make us do crazy stuff, but this may be a bit extreme.

    That said, if you are feuding with one person, why shoot seven peopele?

    David for nonviolent responses
    and if not that, for targeted ones

    Hey! He will be in there with Nodine. Which one is the bigger criminal?
    Neither one thinks they are “a criminal or something.”
