Man charged with murder in Huntsville bar shooting
Updated Dec 12, 2020;
A suspect was arrested in connection with a deadly shooting that happened last month at a bar in Huntsville.
D’Marcus Derwell Bibbs, a 23-year-old from Harvest, is charged with murder in the shooting death of 18-year-old Deandre Denzel Arrington of Huntsville, according to court records.
The shooting happened the night of Nov. 19 at 708 Bar and Grille on Poplar Avenue. The business is located just northwest of the intersection at University Drive and Pulaski Pike.
Little information has been released about the shooting. Court records say Bibbs shot Arrington with a handgun that night.
