A gunman in North Little Rock was arrested Tuesday after his victim wrestled the weapon from his hands and fought back, authorities said.
Police arrived at 1416 W. Short 17th Street at approximately 4:20 p.m. and found Donnell Davis, 38, lying on the ground with wounds to his head, legs and chest, a report by North Little Rock police states.
Authorities said Davis is suspected of shooting another man in the leg during an argument. According to the report, the man wrestled the gun away from Davis and struck the shooter with his fists and the weapon, injuring him.
