On the evening of November 11, 2022, a burst of gunfire in the McCain Mall parking lot in North Little Rock, Arkansas, left two 17-year-old boys mortally wounded inside a car. Officers arriving just after 6:30 p.m. found Marcus Blue pronounced dead at the scene and Alex Berry transported to a hospital, where he later died of his injuries.

Friends and family described Alex and Marcus as being as close as brothers. Alex had talked about joining the Navy and later pursuing a business degree. The North Little Rock Police Department opened an active homicide investigation and pursued multiple leads.

If anyone has information about what happened that night or knew Alex Berry and Marcus Blue, please share what you know with investigators.
