TUSCALOOSA, Ala. - Authorities have charged two Birmingham-area men in a shooting that injured a third person in Tuscaloosa shortly after the LSU-Alabama football game.

Sheriff's officials say 21-year-old Miguel Lawrence Jackson and 20-year-old Bryan Daunte Bedgood are charged with attempted murder and shooting into an vehicle.

Jackson surrendered to officers on Tuesday, a day after Bedgood turned himself in.

A victim initially told investigators he was shot in both legs outside a convenience by two men who taunted him for being an Alabama fan. The shooting happened just hours after the game and a few miles from the stadium.

Investigators later determined the shooting really was part of an argument that began at a nearby business.
