A Columbus teen is dead and four other people are wounded after a Wednesday night shooting at 2910 10th St.
Jamal Alexander, 19, was pronounced dead on the scene at 8 p.m. Wednesday from what Muscogee County Deputy Coroner Charles Newton believes were multiple gunshot wounds. His body will be sent to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation crime lab in Atlanta for an autopsy.
