On the night of Mother’s Day, May 12, 2019, 23-year-old Donyell King was shot and killed in the 100 block of Lily Ruth Court in Hot Springs, Arkansas. King was found in the driver’s seat of his car with gunshot wounds to the face and shoulder. His father, 50-year-old Donald King, was also struck in the back and survived. Both were taken to a local hospital; Donyell later died of his injuries.

According to reports, the shooting followed an earlier dispute between Donyell and his sister, Whitney Finley. Finley’s friend, 25-year-old Kaylen Dantrell Damion Burks, became involved, left the scene, and later returned with 19-year-old Tommy Eddie Woodfork III. The pair confronted King at his vehicle; Woodfork allegedly produced a handgun and fired multiple shots. Both men fled but were subsequently taken into custody.

Does anyone have information about the dispute that led to the confrontation or about the events on Lily Ruth Court that night?
