TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) -  Hospital officials say two of the people injured in a shooting outside a Tuscaloosa bar remain hospitalized.
    
DCH Regional Medical Center spokesman Brad Fisher says Mario Winkler was in serious condition and Renardo Jackson was in fair condition on Thursday.
    
A total of 17 people were hurt by gunfire or debris from the Tuesday morning shootings at the Copper Top bar. Nathan Van Wilkins has been charged with 18 counts of attempted murder.
    
Police say the 44-year-old Wilkins stood outside the crowded downtown bar and opened fire with an assault rifle, sending patrons running or crawling for cover in a chaotic and bloody scene. Bullets ricocheted and glass shards and brick chunks fell around the nightclub.
    
Authorities say Wilkins later surrendered at a FedEx store.
