Witness tells Little Rock police that gunman opened fire at stopped car; 2 other vehicles reported damaged

Multiple vehicles were hit in a shooting in Little Rock on Tuesday evening, police said.

Officers were called shortly before 6 p.m. to the area of Sheraton Drive and Lamont Drive, according to a report from the city's Police Department.

There, a 33-year-old man told authorities he saw a male dressed in all black approach the driver's-side door of a white or silver car stopped at the intersection, then start shooting at the vehicle.

The vehicle sped away and the gunman ran east on Lamont Drive, the Little Rock resident said.

Another witness, a 61-year-old man, told police he heard several shots that may have come from two different guns.

Police also spoke to a 55-year-old man living at a Sheraton Drive address whose 2007 Chevrolet Silverado had one bullet hole on the rear passenger side.

There were several shell casings found at the intersection and in the man's front yard, officers noted.

Another man told authorities he had dropped his sister off at home and was driving down Sheraton Drive near Meadowcliff Elementary School when he heard four or five shots. His car was struck, but he didn't see anything, the 24-year-old reportedly said.

No injuries were reported. Police have named no suspects, and no arrests had been made at the time of the report.
