University of Alabama basketball player Darius Miles was one of two men charged after a fatal shooting Sunday morning in Tuscaloosa, according to multiple reports.
Miles, 21, and Michael Lynn Davis, 20, have reportedly been charged with capital murder after the shooting death of 23-year-old Jamea Jonae Harris.
The incident reportedly occurred around 1:45 a.m. Sunday morning at the Walk of Champion at Bryant Denny Stadium. On3 reported that the victim was inside of a vehicle on Grace Street and University Boulevard.
It came just hours after Miles was ruled out for the rest of the season with an ankle injury. He was also out at the end of a December to deal with a “personal matter,” according to On3. It said he last played on Dec. 20 against Jackson State. The site reported that Miles biography has been scrubbed from the Crimson Tide’s website.
Video showing Miles being walked to a police vehicle in handcuffs shows him in tears, and he tells someone, “I love you your more than you imagine. I swear. I love you more than you imagine.”
