Timeline of suspected mass shooter’s homicides in Birmingham

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (WBRC) - Birmingham Police now believe that Damien McDaniel is responsible for 30% of the city’s homicides between July and September.

He is now indicted in the Trendsetters mass shooting where shooters killed four and injured ten others.

On Tuesday, police were able to arrest Hatarius Woods, another suspected killer in that case, and that is far from the only time police believe these two tried to kill someone in Birmingham.

On July 13, Birmingham Police believe that Hatarius Woods and Damien McDaniel fired shots during a birthday celebration at Trendsetters Lounge that killed four and injured 10 others. Both are now facing multiple charges.

A month later, on Aug. 13, police believe both Woods and McDaniel shot and killed Charlie Moore during a burglary attempt.

Four and a half weeks later on Sept. 21, McDaniel allegedly opened fire in Five Points South outside of a lounge killing four people and wounding 17 others.

Including the Five Points South mass shooting, police say McDaniel killed six people in a four day period in September. They announced his arrest on Oct. 16, but bottom line, McDaniel is charged with killing 11 people, and shooting 30 others in Birmingham since July.

Tuesday is when all the pieces came together. Indictments rolled in on McDaniel and police arrested Hatarius Woods.

Officer Truman Fitzgerald says some of the homicides are being investigated as murder-for-hire, but no doubt there is more to come in the weeks and months ahead.
