dispute over a woman may have led to the shooting death of a 49-year-old Birmingham man

dispute over a woman may have led to the shooting death of a 49-year-old Birmingham man Tuesday night, the victim's brother said. The shooting happened in the 3600 block of 42nd Avenue North at 9:33 p.m. North Precinct officers found Roderick Monday in the street and he was taken to UAB Hospital where he was pronounced dead, according to police. Jones Davis Monday said he happened to see the man he believes killed his brother earlier that evening. On Wednesday morning, Monday said a friend told him the man had been walking around the neighborhood. "I heard they got into it about some woman and some licks were passed," Monday said. "Then the guy went and got a gun."Monday said he and his brother, a handyman who did roofing work, have lived in the Harriman Park community since 1963. The death of his brother is worsened by the fact that Monday will accompany his mother to the funeral of his 95-year-old uncle in Montgomery today. "All this stuff is senseless," Monday said. "I used to be out in the streets myself, but now I'm just trying to do what the Lord wants me to do." Monday was the city's 27th homicide victim of 2008. There had been 19 homicides this time last year.
