In Birmingham, it's March 14th, here's what is happening. A shooting at a Birmingham gas station has led to attempted murder charges against the local man. 36-year-old Keith Martiniar faces those charges plus one for possessing a firearm when prohibited after the incident at the Marathon station on 20th Street in Enzli. The gunfire broke out just before 2.15 pm on Thursday. The victim suffered serious wounds that seemed life-threatening at first, but he's now alert, talking, and doctors expect him to recover. Martiniar's past makes the gun charge especially serious. He pleaded guilty to second-degree assault in 2022, landing a five-year sentence with three years behind bars. Earlier arrests for robbery in 2011 ended with a not guilty finding due to mental health reasons, and a court later lifted his treatment. Order, but ban him from weapons. Police grabbed him the same day and held him in Birmingham City jail until warrants came through. By noon Saturday, he was booked into Jefferson County, jail on $75,000 in bonds. So far, no clear motive has surfaced,
and investigators continue piecing things together. This DNA story is thanks to our sponsor details in the description. No need to switch positions. The sound is already where your head is. S-O-L-I-SoliPillow.com
