At least 11 people were shot dead Tuesday afternoon in southern Alabama by a lone gunman, according to the FBI. The suspect, identified early Wednesday morning as Michael McLendon of Kinston, Ala., took his own life after leaving a trail of bloodshed across two towns.
Jim Stromenger of the Samson, Ala., Police Department said the shootings occurred in at least four separate locations in two towns. No motive is known at this time, he said.
Coffee County coroner Robert Preachers told The Associated Press that the suspect started his spree by burning down his mother's house, where officials found her body. Preachers confirmed that Lisa McLendon had been shot, along with the family dogs.
By late afternoon the shooter had moved on to Samson, where he went to a private home and killed at least five people -- four adults and a child.
