A school district has been left reeling after two of its students and one graduate were identified as victims of a shooting at a 16th birthday party in Alabama on Saturday night.
The two current students, Philstavious Dowdell, 18, and Shaunkivia Smith, 17, were set to graduate from Dadeville High School this summer.
Porter said that Dowdell's younger sister, Alexis Dowdell, is also a student at the high school. The shooting took place at a birthday party celebrating her, Porter said. Smith, who was nicknamed"Keke," was a time-keeper for the Dadeville High School's basketball team. Porter recalls Smith as a great student.
"It has been a quiet, somewhat somber day," Porter said."We’ve allowed clergy to come in and meet with those who requested and counseling has been provided for those who requested."Porter wants all the victims to be remembered not for their untimely deaths, but for how they lived.
