Steve Griffith, 73, was killed by a suspect that was identified by the Cullman County Coroner as Patrick O. Walker, 45. Cullman County Sheriff Matt Gentry said in a brief press conference that Walker was killed by “another occupant at that residence.” It is possible that Griffith’s wife killed the suspect.
Griffith was a father to two adult children and four grandchildren.
