PELL CITY, AL (WBRC)- Pell City police have arrested a man for allegedly killing his sister early Wednesday morning.

Around 3 a.m., a caller asked police to check on the welfare of someone in the Housing Authority apartments in the 100 block of 31st Street North.

Inside the apartment, officers found the body of 29-year-old Lindsay Michelle Love.

Initial reports indicate Love was not killed by a gun, but police have not yet said how she died. The state department of forensics will determine her exact cause of death.

But neighbors say Michelle Love was violently stabbed to death in her home. A professional cleaning company had to be called to remove the blood.

Police gathered enough evidence to arrest Lindsay Love's brother, 30-year-old Brett Christopher Love, in connection to the crime.

Brett Love has been charged with his sister's murder and is in custody of the St. Clair County Jail.

BIRMINGHAM, AL (WBRC)- The "failing" schools list under the newly-passed Alabama Accountability Act has been released. State education officials to released the results around 10 a.m. on Monday.

A total of 78 schools made the failing schools list.

State Superintendent Tommy Bice made it clear that just because a school is listed as failing doesn't mean it's not improving, or that the school has been a consistent underachiever.

Of the 78 failing schools, 48 have at least one year of being satisfactory since 2007. And under the new law's standards, 24 of the schools were not failing last year.

The state superintendent says his authority is limited and he can't just take a school off the list if it shows significant improvement.

SPRINGVILLE, AL (WBRC)- The Springville Fire Department is at the scene of a partial roof collapse at Springville Middle School.

Straight line winds from a thunderstorm peeled off about 30 percent of the gym's roof around 3 p.m. Monday, according to Springville Fire Chief Richard Harvey. No one was inside at the time and no injuries have been reported.

Chief Harvey says many of the gym roof's rafters are intact, but a significant amount of water came through the collapsed roof and hit the hardwood floors.

The roof isn't safe enough to walk on, so maintenance crews are unable to climb on the roof to cover it with tarps. Crews are concerned because more rain is expected this evening.

School principal Virgil Winslett said the good news is that no one was at the school when the roof collapsed and they will have until August to repair it before kids come back for classes.
