Jury: Man guilty for hitting, killing pedestrian with car

HOT SPRINGS, Ark. (AP) - A man who prosecutors say was intoxicated when he fatally struck a pedestrian has been found guilty of misdemeanor negligent homicide by a jury in Garland County.

The verdict came in late Thursday after a two-day trial over the death of 75-year-old James Hipkins.

The Sentinel-Record reports that 48-year-old Danny Roy "Heavy" Jones struck Hipkins on Feb. 22, 2012, on Park Avenue in Hot Springs near Hipkins' home.

Hipkins died the next day at a hospital.

Prosecutor Steve Oliver noted that 90 percent of victims would have survived the blow from Jones' car, but Hipkins' age and health worked against his chances for survival. Oliver said another mitigating factor was that Jones remained at the scene.

Jurors sentenced Jones to 60 days of community service for the misdemeanor conviction.

Garland Co. man acquitted on capital murder charge

HOT SPRINGS, Ark. (AP) - A jury in Garland County has found a man not guilty of capital murder for the shooting of a Malvern man. 

The panel on Thursday cleared 37-year-old Detric Lavon Conway of responsibility for the 2010 slaying of 36-year-old of Jacquard Q. Clark. 

The Sentinel-Record reports that Clark was fatally wounded at his girlfriend's apartment off Park Avenue. 

Two other people have been charged. One was convicted of first-degree murder and trial is pending for the other. 

The acquittal does not mean Conway goes free. He is serving a 36-year sentence for the armed robbery of a Glenwood pharmacy. Conway entered a guilty plea last year to the 2010 robbery.
