2 men arrested in livestreamed killing of Birmingham mother Asia


Three people have been charged in a deadly shooting at a Birmingham apartment complex that was captured live in Facebook videos.


Two men - Justin Jamond Hendrix, 20, and Taylor McCloud, 22 - are charged with murder in the killing of the 21 year old Asia Alyse poole and the attempted murder of her best friend, a man who survived the barrage of gunfire.



Justin Jamond Hendrix was booked into the Jefferson County Jail at 4:33 p.m. Friday, and McCloud at 5:07 p.m. Both are being held without bond.


Janiyah Hendrix, 19, who was fighting with Poole before the shots rang out, is charged with first-degree auto theft after authorities say she fled the chaotic scene in Poole’s co.


She was booked into the county jail 4:51 p.m. Her bond is set at $30,000.



Janiyah Hendrix and Justin Hendrix are siblings. Both were taken into custody Wednesday night at a family member’s home.


Poole’s acquaintances said there was an ongoing dispute between her and Janiyah Hendrix over a man.


It culminated Tuesday night when the two women got into a fight in the parking lot.



The fight escalated into a brawl and a shootout at the Monarch RidgeApartment Complex on Gallant Drive, which was formerly known as Valley Brook.

The video showed Poole in a brawl that began with Janiyah Hendrix and later involved multiple people.


It appeared to start near Poole’s vehicle in the parking lot and then moved to a breezeway in one of the apartment buildings before a hail of gunfire erupted.


The fight and subsequent shooting were captured on Facebook live videos.
