Tarkio Willingham, 51, was shot inside the Rainbow Food Mart at 2110 Junction City Road in El Dorado on the evening of March 2, 2022 and died the following day at the Medical Center of South Arkansas. Police were dispatched about 8:38 p.m., found him near the store’s restroom with multiple gunshot wounds, and he succumbed to those injuries hours later.

Investigators quickly focused on two suspects. A 26-year-old El Dorado woman, Brianna Blackmon, was arrested and booked on March 3, 2022 on a first-degree murder charge; authorities also described additional counts including use of a firearm, participation in violent criminal group activity, and drug-related offenses. A 17-year-old male believed to be the shooter was taken into custody and prosecutors moved to try him as an adult. Media coverage at the time described the killing as a targeted attack inside the neighborhood store.

Did anyone see activity at the Rainbow Food Mart that evening or know anything about the people involved?
