X’Zavier Kamontae Scott.
Whenever I hear about the authorities “capturing” a black criminal, I always imagine it involved a zookeeper’s net.
… That’s a bit racist, isn’t it?
I think I might be racist.

Authorities were looking for a man Tuesday evening who they believe is linked to a Huntsville murder.
The Clarke County Sheriff’s Office said it was looking for X’Zavier Kamontae Scott, 20, in connection with the stabbing death of Tiffany Kelley, 29. Kelley was found stabbed to death on Green Cove Road over the weekend.
Sheriff Ray Norris said his office received a 911 call Tuesday from a woman in Jackson, Ala. The woman said she had come into contact with a girl who told her she had been kidnapped.
The alleged kidnapping victim said Scott killed Kelley in Huntsville and tossed her body on the side of the road, Norris said. He then stole Kelley’s car, Norris said. The vehicle is a 2006 Nissan Sentra with Alabama plate number 47YC784.
