Shirley Jackson, 60, was shot and killed at a home daycare on Park Lane in Little Rock on April 27, 2017. Jackson, who had cared for children in the community for decades, was working at the daycare when the shooting occurred. Nine children were inside the facility at the time; all were reportedly reunited with their families.

Police described the incident as a drive-by shooting and said Jackson likely was not the intended target. Another person was wounded and listed in stable condition. Witnesses reported a silver vehicle speeding away from the scene immediately after the shots were fired. Little Rock police were investigating the homicide and no suspects had been publicly identified.

Jackson’s death left friends, family, and the neighborhood mourning a long-time caregiver. If anyone was in the area that afternoon or has information about the silver vehicle or the shooting, please share what is known with investigators.
