UPDATE: Police arrest man for robbing 2 Little Rock fireworks stands
Last Update: 9:41 am
Police have arrested a man in connection with two LIttle Rock firework stand robberies. Authorities say Courtland Dwayne Ray was arrested after bragging to his friends about the robberies.
Pulaski County deputies say Ray and another suspect walked into the tent at 24 hour Fireworks World on Kanis Road at 3am Saturday morning but they didn't buy anything. Then deputies say the suspects came back a few hours later with at least five other people, pulled guns on the guardsmen and workers and demanded cash.
The men left after stealing about $2,000 worth of fireworks, a Playstation and about $40.
Terry Watson with Fireworks World doesnt want people to think the fireworks stand is unsafe because of the robbery. This place is safe and I feel safe out here, he said. Weve been out here for 17 years and this is the first time anything like this has happened. Im going to look at it as an isolated incident and Im not worried that anything else is gonna happen.
Watson says because of the robbery, the parent company in Batesville will take extra safety measures when that stand opens this week.
Courtland Dwayne Ray
bttt
During that picture all he is thinking of is who called in the tip that got him arrested and what he will do to them if he finds out.
Certainly not remorse for what he did, that will never cross his thieving third grade mind.
Dwayne , your 4th of July plans have been changed.
LOL...post of the day!
He’s celebrating independence from rational thought.
When does his Congressional run start?
Any chance he was also involed in the home invasion murder? Seems like a criminal gang of the mafia type. Where is Ness when you really need him?
No. This cannot be true. There is a mistake. The wrong photo has been posted. I feel faint.
Too bad he wasn’t just intimidating voters with a club. He’d be out now!
