Anthony Jerome Nelson Jr., 21, was shot in the 5100 block of Asher Avenue in Little Rock on October 26, 2021. Police found him suffering from gunshot wounds and he was taken to a nearby hospital, where he died. His body was sent to the Arkansas State Crime Lab for autopsy.

Little Rock detectives identified a suspect in the case. Antwann Wright, also 21 and from Little Rock, was named the primary person of interest, arrested and booked into Pulaski County jail on charges that include capital murder, aggravated assault, three counts of committing a terroristic act and first-degree terroristic threatening.

Nelson, who was from North Little Rock, was a father of three and is survived by his father, Anthony Nelson Sr., siblings and other family. A family hour was held November 2, 2021, with a funeral service the next day to honor him. Does anyone from the area have information about what happened that evening?
