Police have arrested three people on murder charges in a shooting that left a woman dead and a man injured last month in Arkansas’ capital city.
Kingsly Doshier, 17, of Little Rock was taken into custody around 9:30 p.m. Wednesday on one count of capital murder as well as two counts of terroristic act, records show.
Doshier was developed as a person of interest and later a suspect in the March 13 killing of 34-year-old Tartinisha Rainey of North Little Rock, according to a Little Rock Police Department report.
Later Thursday, arrest warrants were served for two other suspects in the case, Lt. Michael Ford said.
The two — 18-year-old Yuhanna Clinkscale of Little Rock and 20-year-old Patrick Johnson of Little Rock — were already being held the Pulaski County jail on unrelated charges, according to police, and now both face capital murder charges in Rainey's death.
Authorities say Rainey and 41-year-old James Jackson, also of North Little Rock, were found shot shortly after 12 a.m. March 13 inside a beige 1997 Nissan Maxima in the area of 26th and Izard streets.

Rainey was unresponsive when officers arrived and later died from multiple gunshot wounds, police said.
Jackson and a third person not hurt in the car told officers that strangers started shooting at their car from a gray vehicle.
Doshier remained at the Pulaski County jail as of Thursday morning, and bail had not been set, according to an online inmate roster. He has a court appearance scheduled for Wednesday.
Rainey’s killing was the sixth of 12 homicides recorded so far this year in Little Rock.
