A mass shooting outside a football game in Alabama on Saturday killed one person and injured eight others, police said.

The shooting happened outside Legion Field in Birmingham, Alabama, after the annual "Magic City Classic" football game. Police Chief Michael Pickett said most spectators and families had already left the stadium property when shots rang out. The shooting, he said, happened nearby, where vendors were set up along Graymont Avenue.

Pickett said it was a "completely senseless act of violence" and that he was "very grateful that more people weren't injured."
