BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (WIAT) — The Birmingham Police Department is requesting the public’s assistance with a homicide investigation into the death of a man who was killed two years ago. 

According to the BPD, its preliminary investigation suggests on April 9, 2021, Tyrone King was driving a Birmingham Water Works vehicle in a Walmart parking lot when a person in a sedan pulled up next to him and fired shots into King’s vehicle.
