Little Rock Police: 2 dead, 5 wounded in late-night shooting

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — Police in Little Rock, Arkansas say gunfire erupted as a crowd of people gathered along a commercial boulevard southwest of downtown known for “caravanning,” or for large processions of drivers cruising on city streets. Two people died and five were wounded as law enforcement sought clues for who may have opened fire. Police Chief Heath Helton says officers responded to the Sunday night shooting on Asher Avenue. Malachi Carey, 20, died at the scene, and Jailene Washington, also 20, died at a local hospital. Helton says a large number of cars had gathered at the location where the shootings occurred.
