A Little Rock man was shot Monday afternoon after refusing to buy a cigar, he told police.
Officers met Michael Scott, 40, shortly after 3 p.m. at UAMS Medical Center, according to a Little Rock Police Department report.
Scott said he was at a liquor store at 1501 Wright Ave. when someone approached him and asked him to buy a Swisher Sweet cigar. The 40-year-old declined and left the store, he told police, and then was "jumped" by multiple people.
The victim said he made his way to his friend's car and heard gunfire as he got in before realizing he had been shot.
Police have named no suspects, and no arrests had been made at the time of the report.
