Timothy Edmund Martin was 37 when he was shot and killed in the early morning hours of July 16, 2017, in Hot Springs, Arkansas. Known as Timmy, he was a father, a Hot Springs High School graduate and an employee at National Park Hospital described as friendly and outgoing. Multiple 911 calls reporting shots fired came in around 1:15 a.m., and officers found Martin deceased inside a vehicle in the parking lot of Boot Scooters Kountry Club on Broadway. Investigators said the shooting appeared to be targeted rather than random.

About a month later, on August 15, 2017, U.S. Marshals and U.S. Probation and Parole arrested 30-year-old Kirkland Litzsey in Little Rock; he was booked into the Garland County Detention Center on a charge of first-degree murder and held without bond. More arrests were said to be possible as the investigation continued.

If anyone was in that area that night or has information about Martin’s activities leading up to the shooting, please come forward.
