On a summer Saturday evening, 20-year-old Xavier Sanders was shot and killed in Little Rock. The shooting occurred on July 27, 2024, in the 6600 block of Lancaster Road; Little Rock officers arrived at 9:01 p.m. and found Sanders with apparent gunshot wounds. Paramedics performed life-saving measures but he was pronounced dead at the scene and his body was taken to the Arkansas State Crime Lab for autopsy.

Homicide detectives and the Crime Scene Search Unit secured the area and collected evidence. That same night a juvenile approached officers and said he was the person they were looking for; he was taken into custody for questioning by the Major Crimes Division and later released pending further investigation. Police asked anyone with information about the killing to contact them.

Are there readers who were in the Lancaster Road area on the evening of July 27, 2024, or who have information that could help the investigation?
