Video: Wynne residents reaction to block party shooting
MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- A 19-year-old man pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in connection to a mass shooting at a block party in Wynne, Arkansas, last year that left one person dead and at least nine others injured.
On Monday, Tommie Frost of Marion, Ark. entered the guilty plea on a Second-Degree Murder charge and Firearm Possession charge for his involvement in the April 13 attack, which resulted in the death of 27-year-old Varian Campbell.
The shooting took place near the corner of Williams Avenue and Martin Luther King Street around 10 p.m. The victims were between the ages of 24 and 49, and two of the victims were reportedly struck by cars.
Frost was arrested by Arkansas State Police along with three others on April 16, just three days after the deadly incident.
He was sentenced to 20 years in prison for the murder charge and an additional 10 years for the firearm possession charge. The sentences will run concurrently, according to the ASP.
The other suspects -- Quaverius Milon, Carl Washington, and Cameron Crawford -- are still awaiting court dates.
Each of the four men was initially charged with First-Degree Murder, nine counts of First-Degree Battery, and nine counts of Engaging in Violent Criminal Group Activity.
