'The Five' co-hosts look back at the top stories of the past year such as the border crisis, the Russia-Ukraine war, and more in Saturday's '2022 New Year's Special.'
A shooting in downtown Mobile, Ala. left at least one person dead and nine others injured on New Year's Eve.
The Mobile Police Department said officers responded to shots fired in the 200 block of Daulphin Street around 11:14 p.m. Saturday, Fox 10 Mobile reported.
The shooting took place as thousands of people were attending the city's 15th annual MoonPie Over Mobile New Year's Eve event.
Mobile Police Cpl. Ryan Blakely told local media outlets that one person died, and nine others were transported to local hospitals where they were treated for injuries. As of early Sunday, their conditions were unknown.

A graphic video circulating on Twitter showed at least two people lying on the sidewalk with injuries moments after the shooting. Witnesses in the area told Fox 10 groups of people started running for cover as soon as the shots rang out.
Carly Bragg, who was downtown celebrating New Year's Eve, told Fox 10 the gunshots were terrifying and "sounded like super-close fireworks."
"The timing of it was wild," Bragg said. "We walked right past the area, and then it happened."
She told the outlet she and her friends hid inside a corridor that was "maybe 15 to 20 feet away from the sound and noticed the window shot out of Urban Emporium when we realized how close we were."
