Shortly before midnight on May 6, 2022, an argument at the intersection of 24th Street and Berkley Avenue in Bessemer, Alabama, ended when 48-year-old Warren Oliver Berney Weatherspoon was shot. He was taken to UAB Hospital in Birmingham but died of his injuries at 2:47 a.m. on May 7, 2022.

The shooter was a 17-year-old male who fled the scene and turned himself in to the Bessemer Police Department the next evening. He was charged with murder and prosecutors decided to try him as an adult. Warren Weatherspoon was born in Cleveland, Ohio, raised in Cuba, Alabama, and was a graduate of Sumter County High School in York. He lived in Bessemer and is survived by his children DeWarren and Trevez Weatherspoon and Cerriunna Jackson, his mother, siblings, and extended family. A graveside service was held on May 14, 2022, at Mount Pleasant Cemetery in Cuba, Alabama.
