Teresa Carter maintains that police in Arkansas killed her son, but officials continue to insist that 21-year-old Chavis Chacobie Carter shot himself in the head despite being handcuffed in the back of a Jonesboro Police cruiser.
The mother of a man who police in Jonesboro, Arkansas, claim shot himself in the head while handcuffed in the back of a cruiser isn't convinced she's being told the truth about what happened to her son.
The road leading to the Klan's headquarters.
Jake Burris, campaign manager for Arkansas 3rd District congressional candidate Ken Aden, returned home with his family last night and found their cat lying dead on the front porch with "LIBERAL"scrawled across its side. The cat, according to Aden's campaign, "had one side of its head bashed in to the point the cat's eyeball was barely hanging from its socket." You can view the somewhat disturbing photo here. (You can't make out the bashed-in head or danging eyeball, fortunately.)
Who was Chan Holcombe, and how was he circumcised? Holcombe's pithy obituary doesn't provide a full answer to the first question, for how could it? Holcombe, who died in Fort Smith, Arkansas last week at age 72, surely lived a full and rich life. He'd served with the Air Force and eventually started his own business. He "caught a lot of crappie" during fishing trips on which he surely contemplated the universe and his place in it—each time coming to a slightly different conclusion, as proof of his evolution as a man. And he raised a family, which surely inspired countless reflections and emotional responses both fleeting and fundamentally life-changing. All that life experience can't be conveyed in just a few hundred words.
Where some see loss, others see opportunity. That would at least appear to be the case at the Apple store in Little Rock, Arkansas where two mourners who had come to pay tribute to Steve Jobs noticed something unusual: that the store was being robbed.
What was Arkansas NBC affiliate KARK weatherman Brett Cummins up to last Sunday night? Oh just drinking and "snorting drugs" and passing out and waking up in a bathtub next to a dead guy. You?
18-year-old Kymberly Wimberly is suing her McGehee, Arkansas public high school for barring her from being valedictorian because of her race. (As opposed to the equally unfair but way less depressing "funny name issue.") Kym's federal lawsuit claims she had the highest GPA in her class and was told she would be valedictorian, but got pushed out last minute for white students.
Students at Russellville Middle School in Arkansas hilariously included a list of the "Top 5 worst people of all time" in their yearbook, and the school is getting in some trouble thanks to the fourth and fifth ranked recipients of this historic award.
Do you, the average Republican presidential primary voter, have any interest in knowing how Mike Huckabee spent his long career as Governor of Arkansas? He would be the frontrunner if he even bothers running, after all, and the public must know every terrible, terrible thing about him. For example: Was he picking weird fights with Natalie Portman back then, too? Perhaps you can think of some other questions. But they won't get answered, because Mike Huckabee cleaned and "physically destroyed" the hard drives of all his staff computers when he left office.
The Arkansas grocery store chain that put a "family shield" over a photo of Elton John and his partner has backed down and removed it.
Oh Lord. A Harps supermarket in Mountain View, Arkansas has placed a "family shield" over the Us Weekly cover of Elton John with his partner David Furnish and their new baby, to protect innocent children. From Mr. John's crazy glasses?
Days after thousands of blackbirds died in Arkansas, 500 blackbirds and starlings fell out of the sky along a Louisiana highway about 300 miles south. There's still no explanation why this is happening—other than the Apocalypse is here.
Remember those five thousand dead blackbirds that "rained" on Arkansas? Well, as it turns out, "they don't have very good night vision" and "it looks like maybe they got startled... ran into each other, fell to the ground and died."
Some 100,000 dead fish died in the Arkansas River, about 125 miles away from the 1,000 blackbirds that "fell out of the sky." So if anyone is wondering where, exactly, Jesus is going to show up: It's Arkansas.
Hey, did you hear that 1,000 blackbirds died and fell from the sky in Arkansas? Nobody knows why it happened! Probably just a normal thing, and not a bad sign. Gonna go stock up the bunker with drygoods...
It's a weird day in America when Massachusetts could learn a thing or two from Arkansas. But such is the case today. And it all has to do with what kids are allowed to wear at school. Oof.
First it was Yellowstone. Then it was Glacier National Park. Now, the incestuous "Bonnie and Clyde" fugitive couple from Arizona are thought to be near the Ozark National Forest in Arkansas. Are they on some sort of National Parks tour?
Four employees of Little Rock's KARK were fired Thursday for making profane video spoofs of TV news and putting them on YouTube. The worst part? They were actually pretty funny! Video below.
An Arkansas coroner is holding a box of human heads an airline employee found. They were en route to a Texas medical facility, but weren't labeled or anything. Officials are ensuring it's not a black market shipment—or worse!
