A man has been arrested in the Monday-night drive-by shooting death of a 20-year-old in south Huntsville.

William Eric Wooden, 22, is held without bail in the Madison County jail on a capital murder charge, records show. He's accused of fatally shooting 20-year-old Kevin Ray Stewart, Huntsville police said.

Officers were called to 237 Wade Road near U.S. 431 just before 9 p.m. Lt. Michael Johnson said officers found Stewart dead in the roadway. Police said Stewart was shot in the head.

Wooden is dating Stewart's ex-girlfriend, Johnson said.

"The shooting was a result of a domestic dispute," a police department statement says.

The shooting brings the number of Huntsville homicide victims to at least 19 so far in 2018. In 2017, 22 people died in homicides in the city.
