Posted

The Baldwin County Sherriff’s Office arrested Trinell Brown in connection with the shooting death of his parents.

According to a news release from BCSO, the agency responded to a report of a shooting on McFarland Road in the unincorporated area of Spanish Fort Saturday, March 18, around 1:30 p.m. Officers located two victims inside the residence with gunshot wounds, and they were both pronounced deceased at the scene.

Based on preliminary information from the sheriff’s office, it is believed that Brown went to his parents’ home and confronted them about an ongoing family dispute. During the argument, Brown is accused of shooting and killing both of his parents. After the shooting, he reportedly exited the residence and made a statement to witnesses that he killed his parents. Deputies responded after being notified and took Brown into custody.

The investigation is in its early stages and is ongoing. The suspect is in custody, and there are no other threats in the area.

If you have information regarding the case, please contact the BCSO at (251) 937-0202.
