A 64-year-old man has been charged with murdering his son after the man believed his son had physically abused his 12-year-old granddaughter.
The Baldwin County Sheriff's Office in Alabama reported that at approximately 8:15 p.m. Tuesday night, deputies received a call of a shooting.
When deputies arrived they discovered 41-year-old Mark Hall lying on the floor of the residence suffering from an apparent gunshot wound.
Hall was transported to the USA Medical Center in Mobile where he was pronounced dead upon arrival.
A preliminary investigation into the incident revealed that Mark, his 12-year-old daughter and Mark's mother had attended a softball game in Mobile.
On their way home, Mark received a phone call, in which he was given information about his daughter, that caused him to begin striking her inside the vehicle.
The striking or "popping" of his daughter, as BCSO investigators called it, continued until they arrived at his parent's residence.
When they got to the home, Mark announced his intentions of taking his daughter to his residence for the evening. Mark's residence is located directly behind his parent's residence.
As Mark was attempting to leave with his daughter, his father, 64-year-old Hubbard Junior Hall intervened.
Hubbard told Mark the he was not going to take the child with him and an argument ensued between the father and son. During the confrontation, BCSO investigators said Hubbard produced a .25 caliber handgun and fired one round into Mark's left side.
Hubbard was arrested and charged with murder in the incident.
He was transported to the Baldwin County Corrections Center where he is currently being held on a $50,000 bond.
Disciplinary action while enraged doesn't work?
ReplyDelete(I wonder what the message was that made the father so angry that he'd beat his daughter while driving?)
A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do and face the consequences to spare a innocent one.. Let's wait and see what the granddaughter and mother testify.

ReplyDeleteY'all I know this family very well and the daughter told me multiple times that he would beat her and drag her by her hair because of a bad grade or a bad game in softball
