What the State Police Report Shows So Far
The account comes from a preliminary report filed by an Arkansas State Police corporal. State police have not announced any charges. The agency has not said whether a final report has been completed.
Police usually wait to release the names of the people involved until their families have been told. That is why names often come out a day or more later.
