Michael Thomas Gimondo, 27, was shot and killed on January 3, 2017, on Barber Road in Bald Knob, Arkansas. White County deputies responded to a 911 call about gunfire around 5:30 p.m. and found Gimondo, originally from Searcy, deceased with a gunshot wound to the chest. He worked as a welder and in construction and enjoyed working on cars and drawing tattoos.

Authorities arrested 33-year-old Joshua Curl of Bald Knob at the scene. Curl was initially charged with second-degree murder with bond set at $150,000; the charge was later upgraded to first-degree murder and he pleaded not guilty. Investigators say Gimondo and others had attended a funeral in McCrory earlier that day, then went to Curl’s home where an argument occurred. Court documents allege Gimondo made threatening remarks and advanced toward Curl, who retrieved a gun from his vehicle, fired a warning shot and then shot Gimondo multiple times, killing him.

Does anyone have information about the events on Barber Road that evening or the people who were with them after the funeral?
