Joshua W. Curl, 34, was arrested last week in the shooting death of Michael Gimondo, 27, of Searcy, who was shot in the chest Jan. 3 on Barber Road in Bald Knob, court records show.

Deputies who arrived at the scene said they found Curl "on his knees with his hands up behind his head," according to a police affidavit filed in court.

The affidavit says Curl "provided a written statement confirming he shot Gimondo after a brief verbal altercation." The affidavit says Curl also provided information that led to the recovery of the gun that he said was used in the shooting.
