LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) – Police in Little Rock say a man has been critically injured in a shooting that apparently stemmed from a gambling disagreement.
Investigators say the man was injured at a residence about 8:25 p.m. Saturday. Officers who responded to reports of a shooting say no one was at the scene when they arrived but they found a shattered glass door, empty shell casings and a hand gun.
