Police name 2 people injured in hours-apart shootings in Arkansas' capital city

The people injured in two separate shootings Monday in Arkansas’ capital city have been identified.

Around 8 a.m. Monday, 40-year-old Roshonda Marbley of Little Rock was shot in the buttocks outside a house in the 7800 block of Preston Drive, according to a Little Rock Police Department report released Tuesday.

Marbley told authorities that the shooting stemmed from a verbal altercation over mechanical work on her vehicle.

Officers responded to CHI St. Vincent Infirmary around 9 a.m., the report noted. The 40-year-old's injuries were not considered life-threatening.

Police named a 49-year-old suspect, though his name did not appear in jail records as of Tuesday morning.

Hours later, Timothy Harris, 19, was wounded in a drive-by shooting at an apartment complex at 1502 Green Mountain Drive, according to a separate report.

The victim had initially been listed by authorities as a 15-year-old boy.

At the scene, officers applied a tourniquet to Harris’ upper thigh until emergency medical personnel could arrive. He was taken to UAMS Medical Center in Little Rock for treatment shortly after 7 p.m., and police did not specify the extent of his injuries.

No suspects were named, and no arrests had been made in that shooting at the time of the report.

A third shooting in Little Rock on Monday, the city’s first confirmed homicide of the year, left 18-year-old Antwan Anderson of Little Rock fatally injured, police said.

Police had not made any arrests in the homicide as of Tuesday.
