BLYTHEVILLE — Authorities in northeast Arkansas are investigating after a juvenile was shot and wounded at a carnival.
Blytheville Police Capt. Scott Adams told the Jonesboro Sun on Monday that authorities hope to serve a warrant soon in the Friday shooting. He said a suspect shot the child at a Mississippi County carnival before fleeing and that the suspect and victim know each other.
Their identities haven't been released, and their relationship is unclear.
Adams said the victim was treated at the Great River Medical Center and released. He said the victim and suspect were likely visiting the carnival from out of town.
