A 34-year-old man is accused of fatally shooting his brother Monday night inside a Little Rock home, authorities said.
Alonzo Lamont Pride was arrested shortly after 10 p.m. when officers investigating a shooting at 4300 Bruno Road found him walking nearby, according to a Little Rock Police Department arrest report.
Pride, who the report lists as living at the address where the shooting occurred, faces charges of first-degree murder, possession of a firearm by a certain person and possession of a controlled substance.

Police identified the victim as Kendrick Gardner, 38, and described him as Pride's brother. He died at the scene.
Arriving officers first met with a girl who told them "her father had shot her uncle inside the residence," Officer Steve Moore wrote in a news release.
Officers went inside and found Gardner suffering from multiple gunshot wounds, Moore wrote.
Pride was arrested in the 4200 block of Baseline Road. Police say he was in possession of half of a "cigarette with P.C.P."
Pride remained in the Pulaski County jail Tuesday morning with bail not yet set.
The killing is the 16th so far this year in Little Rock.
In February 2016, Pride pleaded guilty to robbery, six counts of theft by receiving, two counts of third-degree battery, two counts of theft-of property and resisting arrest, all stemming from a June 2015 case.
He was sentenced to serve time in the Arkansas Department of Corrections and was subsequently released, online records show.
Pride was then arrested on a warrant mid-December 2016 on a charge of possession of a controlled substance. Authorities accuse Pride of committing the crime in October 2016.
A hearing is set for April 17 and a trial for May 31 in that case.
A revocation hearing is scheduled that same day. The state will argue that Pride violated the conditions of his suspended sentence for the February 2016 conviction, court records show.
