Little Rock police have interviewed and released a man who they say fatally shot his brother after being threatened with a knife.

Fred Lee Mosby Jr., 35, who had been sought by police in the shooting and who surrendered about 9 p.m. Tuesday, gave a statement and was released without charges, Little Rock Police Department Lt. Sidney Allen said Wednesday. The file will be sent to the prosecutors' office for review to determine whether Mosby's use of force was justified and whether charges will be filed, Allen said.

About 1:45 a.m. May 6, Rhonda Mosby, 38, called police and said her husband, Keith Mosby, 33, had just been shot by his brother, Fred Mosby, in the stomach at their apartment at 1912 Green Mountain Drive, according to a Little Rock Police Department report.
