Charges upgraded on Saenger Theatre shooting suspect
SUMMARY: Charges have been upgraded to capital murder against Marcus Sanders, accused in the Saenger Theatre shooting in Mobile that killed Carl, a man attending a children’s dance recital with his daughter. Mobile County District Attorney Keith Blackwood announced the change, which could lead to the death penalty or life imprisonment if convicted. Blackwood cited the reckless endangerment of children present during the shooting as the reason for the harsher charge. Sanders’ attorney, Chase Dearman, plans to argue the shooting was justified and emphasized prior conflicts involving Sanders and the victim. Authorities continue investigating the circumstances behind their argument.
The man accused of shooting and killing another man at the Saenger Theatre is now charged with capital murder.
