The agency on Tuesday identified the man who was killed as 32-year-old Tyler Terrell.

Officers found Terrell in a garage bay at 7101 Colonel Glenn Road -- the location of Dr. Detail, an auto detailing shop. He had multiple gunshot wounds, and a doctor pronounced him dead at 5:02 p.m., police said.

The release said detectives determined Terrell and a 34-year-old Little Rock man had started to argue. The man shot Terrell with a pistol during the argument, police said. He surrendered to officers.

After interviewing witnesses who gave different explanations of the shooting's circumstances, police decided to send the case to the prosecutor's office to review whether charges will be filed.

The shooting was Little Rock's 29th homicide of the year. The investigation is ongoing.
