Alabama teen hit by bullets in drive-by shooting dies

Authorities say an Alabama teen died from injuries suffered during a drive-by shooting last month.

WALA-TV reports that 18-year-old Jay’Marcus Jefferson was hit by two bullets while inside a house April 24, and died four days later in the hospital.

Jefferson’s dad, Reginald Jefferson, says a bullet also scraped Jefferson’s infant sister.

His grandmother, Charlotte Jefferson, says the family is taking comfort in knowing Jefferson’s organs were donated to seven people.

Further details haven’t been released.
