Gulf Shores Crime News

UPDATE Nov. 16, 2024:

A man killed on December 13 in an FBI agent-involved shooting had years of legal battles with government officials and had called for a militia to take them down on December 15.


Alexander Hilton Randles shared his concerns on Facebook the day he was killed.

"Insurrected government officials will block the Courts and manufacturer [sic] chaos to avoid liability and incarceration," he posted. "They will make victims into criminals if they don't get their way." (see posts below)



Randles posted about conspiracies on social media for over two years. He also called himself a fitness influencer and made videos under the name "Juicy Destinations."'

While some followers described his escalating tone as paranoid, others supported Randles and asked him to stay strong and not give up on exposing the truth.


"If they kill me, then know that they will kill us one by one until they control you," he posted on November 3. "They will isolate you from your friends and family. They will destroy your life till you comply."


ORIGINAL STORY:

According to Facebook posts, the shooting took place at Traditions Apartments when a warrant was being served. 


According to reports, the subject of the warrant is dead. From what we’re hearing, no one else was hurt.


The Gulf Shores Police posted the following on their Facebook page.


“There is a large police presence in the area of Oak Road West and Gulf Shores Parkway regarding an FBI officer involved shooting. The GSPD is assisting the FBI with scene security however GSPD officers were not involved nor took part in the incident. As more information becomes available it will be released by the FBI.”


We will add additional details as information becomes available.


UPDATE: It was later confirmed by the FBI that they were attempting to serve a federal search warrant. Spokesperson  Tommy Lofts added “During an attempt to serve arrest and search warrants, the FBI SWAT team encountered and shot the armed subject who is now deceased. The FBI takes all shooting incidents involving our agents or task force members seriously. In accordance with FBI policy the shooting incident is under review by the FBI inspection division. As this is an ongoing matter we have no further details to provide.”

On coastlines around the United States jetties are often used to protect harbor and inlet entrances. They are also some of the most dangerous waters for swimming. According to NOAA, jetties can contribute to increased drowning risks, especially due to the presence of rip currents and the potential for dangerous currents and changes in water depth near the structures. Jetties can also make it more difficult to enter and exit the water safely due to sharp rocks and the force of waves.
