Arkansas club shooting: 28 injured in Little Rock nightclub after ‘dispute’

US police investigate a shooting at a nightclub that injured at least 28 people in Arkansas.

Police said they believed the gunfire erupted amid a dispute among clubgoers, and that multiple people fired shots but there were no suggestions the incident was terrorism-related.

The shooting occurred in the Power Ultra Lounge in Little Rock in the early hours of the morning on Saturday (local time) during a rap concert.

Little Rock police said 25 people were shot and three others suffered unrelated injuries but all were expected to survive.

“Some sort of dispute broke out between individuals that were inside, and an exchange of gunfire took place,” Police Chief Kenton Buckner said.

“We do not believe this was an act of terror, nor do we believe it was an active shooter situation.
