On the night of Friday, October 21, 2022, 18-year-old Kirk Kirkwood, a Black male from North Little Rock, was fatally shot at GT Ashley McAlmont Community Park off Arkansas Highway 161. Pulaski County Sheriff’s deputies found Kirk with fatal gunshot wounds around 11 p.m.; he was pronounced dead at the scene. The park was treated as an active crime scene as investigators collected casings and evidence and spoke with witnesses.

Investigators later focused on multiple suspects rather than a lone assailant. A public BOLO named four people wanted for capital murder and described a white Mitsubishi Galant, Arkansas plate AIU16Z. By December 26, 2022, deputies reported all four named individuals were in custody on capital murder charges. Authorities have not publicly released a full account of what brought the group to the park or each person’s alleged role.

Did anyone in the area that night see activity in or around McAlmont Community Park that could help explain what happened to Kirk?
