Police investigate car chase, shots
Four Little Rock residents in a vehicle were chased along University Avenue by at least two people firing shots from two vehicles Thursday, a police report said.
The four people, ages 19-25, told police that they were driving on University Avenue when people in a white Chevrolet Malibu and a black Toyota Corolla began shooting at them. Near the 3900 block of University Avenue, the four said, something hit their vehicle, and officers later found a bullet hole in the car's passenger side rear bumper.
The victims told police that the two cars had turned back northwest and were likely headed to Covewood Circle, where two of the suspected gunmen live. Officers located both vehicles at that address and took four suspects in for questioning.
