When I got a text at midnight Saturday saying there might have been a shooting in Dadeville, I never thought I’d be walking into the disaster I did.

I called our news reporter, Will Marlow, and told him I’d run up there and just to hang back, call Tallapoosa County Sheriff Jimmy Abbett or Dadeville Police Chief Jonathan Floyd. “Just see if you can get a quick update, ask them what’s up,” I said.
