A shooting at a Circle K on Colonel Glenn Road in Little Rock on Thursday left 74-year-old James Parker and 19-year-old Ladontae Wilburn dead; four others were injured, with reports describing them as critically injured. Police arrested Ladontae’s twin brother, 19-year-old Kavontae Wilburn, and charged him with capital murder. Investigators say surveillance footage shows an exchange of gunfire inside the store and Kavontae firing multiple rounds toward victims from the doorway; authorities have also said charges are pending against one injured person. The shooting prompted local officials, workers and community leaders to call for peace and support for the affected neighborhood.
