The Little Rock Police Department has responded to seven homicides in the month of September, and LRPD has made arrests of the individuals responsible in five of the seven incidents.

These incidents are disheartening to our department just like they are to members of the community. The Homicide Unit is working swiftly to solve the remaining cases to bring the person(s) responsible to justice. We have been focused on proactive policing and comprehensive crime prevention efforts to disrupt crime trends.

Through our investigations of this month’s homicides, none of them appear to be related. We want to reassure Little Rock residents that our patrol divisions and detectives are working diligently to solve these cases.

While detectives continue to work on all unsolved cases, we welcome community input into any of these investigations. We urge anyone with information regarding an unsolved homicide, to contact our Major Crimes Division at 501-371-4660. Crime-related tips can also be submitted by using the “YourLRPD” smartphone app. We are grateful for the community’s support and involvement in providing tips related to crime.
