MOBILE, Ala. On Wednesday, September 3, 2025, at approximately 1:45 p.m., officers responded to the 4200 block of Bayfront Road in reference to a disorderly subject inside of the home.
When police arrived at the residence, the male subject fired a shot out of the home.
At that time, officers set up a perimeter, and SWAT, the Crisis Intervention Team, and other units arrived on scene.
During this time, the subject, now identified as Woodrow Meservey, 49 fired additional shots towards officers, and that’s when officers fired back, injuring the subject.
The subject was transported to a local hospital with life-threatening injuries but died a short time later.
“This is not the outcome anyone would hope for. We utilized many available resources, including our partners at AltaPointe Health and our Crisis Intervention Team on scene, but were unsuccessful bringing the situation to a peaceful resolution. After more than two hours and the subject exiting the home and firing at my officers, they were left with no choice but to engage him,” said Chief William Jackson.
This remains an active investigation.
