Authorities are actively seeking assistance in identifying the individual responsible for the shooting death of a 28-year-old man from Florence. The tragic incident occurred on Sunday night at a residence located at 1110 Paul E. Johnson Drive. Police Chief Tony Logan reported that officers received a call at approximately 7:05 p.m. regarding a shooting victim. Upon their arrival, they discovered Nathan Littleton deceased in the back bedroom, having sustained multiple gunshot wounds.
Court records indicate that Littleton had faced legal troubles prior to this incident. In November 2023, he was charged with first-degree unlawful possession of marijuana and unlawful trafficking of a controlled substance, specifically synthetic marijuana. His trial was scheduled to take place in Colbert County in August, with the 19th being the intended date; however, it remains unclear whether the trial occurred as planned.
In light of this recent violence, Chief Logan is urging anyone who may have information related to the shooting on Paul E. Johnson Drive to reach out to the police department. Individuals can contact the authorities at 256-383-3121 or visit the police station directly to provide any relevant details.
