Could the senseless loss of this young man have been prevented and are justice and compensation available to Mr. McLeod’s family?

Local News

Security measures are in question after 22-year-old Kareem McLeod “was shot in the parking lot of a 7-Eleven Exxon gas station on Clanton Rd. Friday night,” October 19, 2018, according to FOX 46.

Police told WSOCTV 9 emergency responders transported Mr. McLeod to the hospital, where he tragically succumbed to fatal injuries. Investigators have not yet identified a suspect and it is unclear whether robbery is considered a motive.

Our Legal Take

Gas station and convenience store patrons have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises. The Murray Law Firm questions the level of security provided on the property and whether this unconscionable shooting may have been prevented.

  • Have there been prior incidents of violence on or near property?
  • What security measures, such as bright lighting, monitored surveillance cameras, clear windows and sight lines, and visible security patrols, were in place to deter crime and protect Mr. McLeod at the time of the shooting?

Generally, property owners are required to protect all those legally on the premises from any foreseeable harm. Should the facts of this matter reveal that the gas station owner or management failed to provide adequate security to protect those on its premises, Kareem McLeod’s family may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims for their loss.

Based upon its prior successful experience in handling security negligence claims on behalf of victims and their families, The Murray Law Firm suggests that photographs and a thorough, unbiased inspection of the property will need to be performed immediately, before any evidence may be repaired, damaged or destroyed. Given the complexities of pursuing a negligent security case, it is imperative that the victim’s family retain an experienced attorney who can ensure the preservation of any and all evidence that may support such a claim.
