The Tuscaloosa County Sheriff’s Office Violent Crimes Unit is investigating a Sunday night shooting that left a 24-year-old man dead.

The victim has been identified as Demetrius Damon Windham, Jr.

The shooting happened at 7:15 p.m. in the 3900 block of Northwood Lake Drive West.

Northport police responded to the shooting and found Windham dead.

Capt. Jack Kennedy of the Tuscaloosa County Sheriff’s Office said Monday morning that the killing appears to be targeted, or that the suspect knew Windham.

“We do not feel like this was random,” he said. “We don’t think there’s any danger to the general public.”

Kennedy would not say whether authorities believe the murder was carried out by more than one person.

Anyone who saw any suspicious individuals or vehicles in the area of Northwood Lake Drive West between the Northwood Lake spillway area and Highway 69 around that time are asked to contact the VCU at (205) 464-8690.

Kennedy said people in the area should check doorbell cameras for any images that might aid in the investigation.
