2 hurt in separate Little Rock shootings, police say

Little Rock police are investigating after two people were injured in separate shootings Sunday afternoon and early Monday, according to reports.

The first shooting happened just before 4 p.m. Sunday near Thom Park, which is southeast of Baseline and Chicot roads in southwest Little Rock.

Officers responded to CHI St. Vincent, where 21-year-old Samuel Khabeer was being treated for gunshot wounds to the right tricep, right hip and abdomen, according to a police report.

A witness told officers the victim ran to her bleeding and asked if she could drive him to the hospital. Khabeer's mother added that her son had been fighting with an unidentified person in the park earlier that afternoon.

About eight hours later, a trio of robbers shot a 27-year-old man outside a home in southwest Little Rock, according to a separate report.

That victim, identified as Sirdaleon Adrow, told officers he was smoking outside his aunt's house in the 5900 block of Freeland Drive about 12:15 a.m. Monday when three black males drove up and asked to use his cigarette lighter.

Police wrote that as Adrow reached to retrieve his lighter, one individual pointed a handgun at him and said, "Watcha got?" When Adrow said he didn't have anything, the gunman shot him in the left shoulder, the report states.

As he fled, the assailant fired two more shots before driving away in a black or dark green Honda that had a red Razorback sticker on the back windshield, officers said.

Adrow was taken to UAMS Medical Center to be treated for injuries that were not considered life-threatening.

No suspects had been named, and no arrests had been made at the time of the reports.
