Darius Miles, a junior forward at Alabama, has been charged on Sunday evening.

"Crimson Tide basketball player Darius Miles one of two men charged with capital murder in fatal shooting on The Strip early Sunday morning," Ryan Phillips reported.

A statement from the University of Alabama will likely be coming at some point.
