Earlier Tuesday, around 7 p.m., a 20-year-old Little Rock woman was shot near 5609 Baseline Road, according to a separate report.
Lillian Murphy, along with two other women, were reportedly at the Auxora Arms Apartments, 9101 Auxor Road, when vehicles filled with a few males they knew pulled up, police said.
One woman told officers they drove away, and a brown SUV followed, then rammed their vehicle at a stop sign. Police said the women reportedly jumped out of the vehicle at an AutoZone at 5609 Baseline Road and two were picked up.
Murphy ran to hide behind a church sign and gunmen shot at her, she told police.
Murphy was struck by at least one round and taken to an area hospital, according to authorities. The victim was in stable condition at the time of the report.
Several rounds struck the AutoZone, according to the report, but no employees were injured.
