Birmingham police are on the scene at Saint Vincent's Hospital this morning, where somebody fired a gun early this morning.

We have now learned that a police officer and two hospital employees were injured during that shooting, and they have been taken to UAB hospital.

Their injuries were not life threatening.

The gunman was killed during the shooting.

Police say that the public is not in any danger, and that the situation is under control.

Our reporter on the scene says additional nurses have been called in to work.

Thank you all for your prayers and inputs.

UPDATE reference my cousin's health:

Doctor came out of surgery and said my cousin has to wear a bag for at least 3 weeks at least.
His intestines are tore up pretty bad from the gunshot through his back.
It'll be at least 6 weeks before they'll know how his healing will go and if his bag-wearing will be permanent.

I hope all the wounds heal, its so difficult to seek retribution nowadays for these acts of violence. It only begs for us to become united to fight against it.

"Within a couple of days - if not on the Sunday gas bag shows - we will be hearing that WH clown has a "MANDATE" to restrict, or even throw out, the 2nd Amendment for "the sake of the children". No Constitutional proposal or vote will be necessary because clown will be deemed to have been given a "MANDATE" by the media and public to ban all guns that ____________ you fill in the blank.

If and when that happens, we will know, without a doubt, what time it is.

A couple hours ago, FOX reported that an armed young white guy ambushed an ambulance and killed a deputy in MO. All these wackos will be used by hussein to tear down the 2nd so that the only ones allowed to carry are his civilian armies.

Thank you for the update. That’s not something I would wish on anyone. This guy and your family have my deepest sympathy and most fervent wishes for a full recovery.

At this point, I am very glad to hear it sounds like he will pull through.

Take care...

[bicyclerepair]

Thanx Mr. Da

Good advice.

[Smokin' Joe]

Prayers up for a complete recovery, and for all your cousin’s needs.

[StAnDeliver]

Wow, praying for your cousin and your family...

A misaligned forefinger and thumb are extremely dangerous (to a kid’s edumacation anyway).

Safety is still on and hammer is down:

I don’t know about Adam Lanza. With a mother who owned five guns, that’s not your typical CT Democrat.

[Clay Moore]

It is not too rare in bigger cities for rival gang members to show up at the ER to finish the job. That is why the cop is there near the triage desk.

Bronco is going after a “reinterpretation” of 2A. after 230 yrs. With Roberts at the helm anything is possible.

[DoughtyOne]

I think your point is reasoned, but I’d bet there are plenty of gun owning Democrats in the state.

As for Adam, there’s probably a good chance he’s a registered Democrat. They both may have been. Who knows.

I have relatives that are gun owning Democrats.

[9YearLurker]

My guess for Adam would be libertarian.

I am praying for a miracle for your cousin. See what God can do:

UPDATE:

My cousin came to after the surgery, and he said he saw the gunman coming in the hallway with the gun.
He immediately opened a closet door, shoved a nurse into the closet, and felt the burning sensation in his back.
As his knees buckled, the closet door closed from his weight, and that's all he remembers for now.
