    Found out about this senseless killing about a couple of months ago, was shocked, as I know his dad and uncle from the tire shop behind, Littlerock Central Auto parts. I knew him for quite a while, as he went to Littlerock High School with my Grandson. We’d converse about my grandson as to how was he doing. Not being a family member, he was really proud him, getting married & having his first child. He was a real nice young man. As for wrong crowd, ”bull, maybe” my thought, wrong women!! We’ll never know until they find the person who did this. What a friggan waste of life.

      I just found out today, almost a month after the incident. I went by the tire shop for service where an employee told me. I was shocked. Chris became a friend over the last year. Such a waste of a great young person. I hope the a$$hole that dis this rots in prison, then rots in hell. I will miss you Chris.
