On the night of January 20, 2017, North Little Rock experienced its first two murders of the year. Police were called shortly after 9 p.m. to a Division Street residence where 36-year-old Glenn Jennings and 26-year-old Monte Gilbert were found shot in a bedroom. Gilbert was pronounced dead at the scene; Jennings was taken to a nearby hospital and later died of his wounds.

Officers located a white Mercury Mountaineer a block from the house with the keys in the ignition and contacted Emanuel Traylor and two others. The two initially said the vehicle had been stolen, but one witness later admitted fabricating that story and implicated Traylor. Investigators came to believe the shootings stemmed from a drug deal that went wrong, and Traylor was arrested in connection with both deaths.

If anyone knew Jennings, Gilbert, or has information about the events on Division Street that night, can you share what you know?
