Police say their son, Antonio Whitlow, is a suspect in their murders. He's also suspected of kidnapping his 12-year-old sister from the home.
Original Story:
Little Rock police confirm they are investigating two murders at a home in the 2800 block of Zion Street.
They also tell KARK a child is missing from the home.
Officers tell us they responded to the home about 3:15 Saturday afternoon. They were called by a friend of the victim who was scheduled to come over for a visit, opened the door and found a woman dead inside.
Later officers also discovered the woman's husband dead in the home. All we know of the couple is that they are black and in their 60's.
Police are not releasing a cause of death and they do not know of a motive.
They are now actively searching for the young girl, who is related to the couple. They are releasing a still picture from surveillance video taken near the scene of a possible suspect's car.
We have a crew on the scene and we will bring you more details as soon as they become available to us.
