Authorities in Little Rock are investigating a shooting that occurred in a parking lot outside the Clinton Presidential Center in downtown Little Rock.
Police were called to the area at 8:15 p.m. after a reported shooting in the visitor parking lot. The victim, a 19-year-old whose name was not released, was said to suffer a non-life threatening gunshot wound to the leg.
"Motive appears to be a robbery," police wrote on Twitter. "Victim was selling blue jeans when shot. Incident not at all related to the upcoming presidential election."
A woman who was playing with her kids outside the center reported hearing a loud boom and then saw the victim "spinning on the ground," Democrat-Gazette reporter Ryan Tarinelli said on Twitter.
It wasn't immediately known if the shooter had been identified or arrested.
