DALLAS CO., AL (WSFA) -Instead of going to his senior prom, a Selma teenager found himself behind bars, charged with the murder of his friend.
The deadly shooting happened as a group of friends was riding down the road in the Sardis area Friday, according to Captain Mike Granthum with the Dallas County Sheriff’s Department.
Around 11:30 a.m. Friday four teenagers, including the victim and suspect, were in the same car near the intersection of County Road 67 and Industrial Drive.
The Dallas County Sheriff’s Department says the suspect, Ratravious Sanders, 19, whom Granthum identified as a senior at Selma High School, managed to get a gun and was trying to show it off to his friends in the car.
He was in the back seat and tried to shoot it out the window of the vehicle, but the 9mm malfunctioned so he brought it back inside to see what the problem was and it went off, Granthum explained.
The bullet went through the front passenger seat and shot the victim, Rufus Williams, 19, in the back. The female driver, who is Williams’ girlfriend and Sanders’ sister, pulled the car over and the teens called 911. Williams was dead on arrival, officials said.
