AR Little Rock - Serial Stabber

[sk716]

I haven't started one of these before so please forgive me if I screw it up. This is a different killer than the suspected serial killer in Hot Springs, Arkansas.

The attacks have happened in a rough part of 'mid-town' that is more commonly known as the LR Central High School Historic District.

Victims appear to be random.

Strange that there doesn’t seem to be any reports/updates online since June 2021.

Anyone have a source for more recent info?
