Update (5:00 p.m. Tuesday):
Little Rock Police say the name of the burglary suspect who died after being shot by an officer was Charles Edward Murry, Jr., 19.
The names of the two men found shot at the home have not yet been released.
According to information from the Pulaski County Sheriff's Office, Murry had been arrested in March on charges that included commercial burglary, theft of property and theft by receiving. He had been released from jail less than a month ago.
Update (3:15 p.m. Tuesday):
Neighbors at the scene tell KARK that the man who died inside the house was found upstairs.
While police have not yet identified the men found shot at the house, neighbors tell us they worked for the homeowner, who was not there when the shootings happened.
Update (1:13 p.m. Tuesday):
Police report the man who was shot by an officer in this incident and a second person found shot inside the house have both died at area hospitals.
The injuries for the third person found shot in this incident are reported by police to be life-threatening.
Original story (12:22 p.m. Tuesday):
Little Rock Police are on the scene of an officer-involved shooting at 204 Thayer Street.
It happened just before noon.
KARK 4 Reporter Deedra Wilson reports that two people were injured in the incident at the house. She says one of them was found inside a home and the other outside the home. Both were taken to the hospital. Their conditions are unknown.
An armed man police say was running from the house as officers arrived is reported to have been shot in an exchange of gunfire with an officer. Their condition is also unknown. We're told the officer who fired shots at the man had minor injuries.
Police on the scene tell our reporter that officers were called to the house on a burglary.
That address is just south of West Markham Street in the Capitol View neighborhood.
More details about the circumstances of the shooting to come.
