In the winter of 2019, the life of Wiley Lamont Carr, a 43-year-old man, was tragically cut short in Little Rock, Arkansas. On the evening of January 16th, the sharp report of gunfire prompted a response from the Little Rock Police Department to West 29th Street after a ShotSpotter activation alerted them to the incident. Arriving at the scene around 7:30 p.m., officers discovered Mr. Carr with apparent gunshot wounds.
He was pronounced deceased at the location.
In the immediate aftermath of the shooting, homicide detectives began their investigation, canvassing the neighborhood in the hopes of finding witnesses who might shed light on the events that led to the fatal shooting. The Pulaski County Coroner's Office transported Mr. Carr's body to the state crime lab for an autopsy to officially determine the cause of death. At the time, authorities had not identified any suspects or a motive for the killing, leaving a void of information and a grieving family searching for answers.
Months after his death, Wiley Lamont Carr's murder remained unsolved. His family continued to plead with the public for any information that might lead to the arrest of those responsible for his death. As of the latest available information, there have been no public announcements regarding any arrests or the identification of any suspects in connection with the homicide. The case remains a painful and unresolved chapter for his loved ones, who continue to hope for justice.
