The shooting happened at the intersection of Hwy 253 and Boone, just outside of Hackett. A witness told 40/29 News it happened near Mockingbird Lane.

Officers are at the property of the suspected shooter, but the shooter is not in custody, Pevehouse said.

The condition of the officers is unknown right now.

Crawford County Sheriff Ron Brown is responding with deputies for assistance. The Crawford County SWAT is also responding, as are deputies with the Scott County Sheriff’s Department.

Ok, so what’s the suspect’s description? Was it a traffic stop or were they serving a warrant or did they track down a perp from some other activity?

Prayers for the officers.

It happened before 7:20 a.m. outside a residence in the 4700 block of Arkansas 253, which is between Greenwood and Midland.

Pevehouse said the two officers were hit while responding to an unspecified call for service. He said the shooter is thought to still be in the house.

Thank you

"SEBASTIAN COUNTY —UPDATE: The Sebastian County Sheriff's Department identified the suspect as Billy Jones of Greenwood.

He was described as having negative feelings towards law enforcement. The situation began when law enforcement went to serve a warrant."

Lots of meth in that area. Lots of PWT. Amish population is VERY low. Lots of Latinos though. That area is known as the "chicken finger", a demographic area of Arkansas that has LOTS of chicken farms.

75% white, 20% Latino, 2% native Americans, <1% Asian, <1% black....

Greenwood is proably 95-98% white, ~2-3% Latino, 0.00001% black. If there are any blacks in Greenwood, its this guy:
