A pregnant woman shot a man who attacked her family during a Memorial Day visit to Arkansas, according to a police report.
The incident occurred in a parking garage in Little Rock during a robbery attempt, police said. The woman, who was with her husband and two children, told police that her husband was tackled and punched by a man as he was loading something on top of their van. She said that the man then went into the car and struck her, which is when she pulled out a gun and shot him.
The man accused of attacking and attempting to rob the family was identified as 37-year-old Markevious King. The police were called and King was then transported to a nearby hospital.
The husband, who said his family was from Memphis, told KARK that they had come to Little Rock to go to the zoo and a waterpark to celebrate his daughter’s birthday.
“Ah, just a fractured rib, and my wife has a couple of knots on her forehead where he apparently punched her,” the husband said, describing the family’s injuries.
"A lot of things could’ve happened and we never know what he was really planning or anything. if he was trying to kidnap our girls or just trying to steal the car or what,” he added.
He added that the family was used to violent events because they lived around Memphis.
“We live in Memphis and this kind of happens to people here all the time so I mean it’s not something we are going to let shine down or shadow down on our lives because we do like to travel,” he said.

It’s also Little Rock -— the liberal area of Arkansas.
Is that pic current with the crime the article is referring to?
If not, for being shot he injuries don’t appear very severe.
Btw, I thought there were physical standards for cops? These people are obese...
The standards are based on donuts eaten per day.
Now there's a family that knows how to live in a democrat hellhole. May I suggest they pack up and move to Florida anyhow? They would be safer, happier and the state will give them $8,000 per child to send at any school of their choice. AND there's no state income tax...
She’s not from New York...
Yeah I was thinking the same thing. Maybe from another arrest? Not sure. Photo was in the article.
