Good morning, Little Rock.

Two years after a tornado damaged Burns Park in 2023, the park has recovered and reopened Funland this spring, where families enjoyed new handicapped-accessible rides + the popular children's train.

The park, covering 1,700 acres, now hosts sports tournaments + group events for community visitors.

Officials are searching for Grant Hardin—an escaped former police chief from an Arkansas prison—who is considered extremely dangerous.

Officers responded to a shooting on May 22 at 4805 Lovett Drive where one man sustained gunshot wounds — suspect Jacob Goff-Stanick fled during a North Little Rock traffic stop and exchanged gunfire with officers before being arrested and questioned on May 24.

Saline County Judge Matt Brumley released photos showing vandalism on the new Southwest Trail where equipment from James A.

Rogers Excavating was damaged—one machine found partly submerged in a creekbed—and he offered an $11,000 reward for any tip leading to a conviction.

A woman died and two others were injured in a shooting in Holly Grove (this weekend) (no further details have been released).

Gold Star families, veterans and community members gathered in Little Rock Monday to remember those who lost their lives in U.S. military service — the ceremony featured taps and personal reflections, including Sharri Briley honoring her husband, Donovan Briley, who was killed in action over Mogadishu. The event served as a tribute to the sacrifice of all who served with honor.

The Little Rock Open starts today at Rebsamen Tennis Center on the west side after qualifying rounds were delayed by Memorial Day weather, with top seed Mitchell Krueger set to defend his title in the ATP Challenger event.

The free tournament supports the UAMS Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute’s bone marrow program and will run through Sunday — offering local fans a chance to see international professional tennis up close.
