Another incident of gun violence was reported in Dadeville, Alabama, shortly after a deadly mass shooting that killed at least two people at a park in Louisville, United States, Fox News reported. 

The incident of gun violence took place at around 10:30 pm when the police received reports of a shooting at the Mahogany Masterpiece dance studio in Dadeville — a small city in Tallapoosa County.

The incident occurred at a teenager's birthday party at a dance studio, with four people killed and at least 20 others injured. 

Alabama Governor Kay Ivey said she was "grieving" with the people of her state. "Violent crime has NO place in our state, and we are staying closely updated by law enforcement as details emerge," she tweeted.

According to a witness, "the total number of victims was higher, including multiple people who died at the scene" — which is yet to be confirmed by the authorities adding that "white sheets were covering the bodies."

There is also no detail available on the suspect who reportedly opened fire at a teenage birthday party at a dance studio.

Daleville is a small city located about 44 miles northeast of Montgomery.

This shooting incident happened days after a lethal mass shooting at Old National Bank in Louisville, which resulted in the death of at least five people and injuries to eight others.
