In the early morning hours of July 18, 2019, Edward Eugene Arnold, 52, was found dead from a gunshot inside his home in the 8000 block of U.S. Highway 64 East in Atkins, Arkansas. Pope County deputies responded to a 911 call placed about 3:45 a.m. by Arnold’s wife reporting that her husband had been shot by their daughter. A 15-year-old female was taken into custody at the scene and charged with first-degree murder; she was held at the Yell County Juvenile Detention Center and prosecutors said they intended to seek to charge her as an adult.

Arnold, known as Eddy, was a retired military man from Minden, Louisiana, who belonged to the Atkins Free Will Baptist Church and enjoyed fishing, hunting, and family life. Investigators noted a prior incident in which Arnold had confronted and physically assaulted his daughter’s 18-year-old boyfriend after finding him in the house.

Does anyone have information about the days and hours before July 18, 2019, or knew the family and might help fill gaps in the timeline?
