Sekani and infant

Kissing baby toes — what mother has not done that? Sekani, the new gorilla mother at the Little Rock Zoo, and her as-yet unnamed and unsexed infant, born Sunday, made their first public appearance today. The infant is nursing well, zoo spokesmen say. Sekani appears to be taking to motherhood, holding her baby with both big hands in the photograph below.

Officers with North Little Rock police responded to a call about a shooting at Verizon Arena this morning around 11 a.m. and found two people shot.

I hinted earlier that evidence was mounting that the securities salesman who provided confidential information to the FBI was Steele Stephens, the broker who began enjoying a huge share of Treasurer Martha Shoffner's bond business in 2010.

Debbie Rogers, chief deputy state treasurer, said Treasurer Martha Shoffner will not be at work today, but otherwise it was "business as usual" at the treasurer's office.

Worst local story today so far is from Fox 16: A North Little Rock woman has died after her fiancee poured gasoline on her and set her on fire.

The University of Arkansas president recommends that campuses remain gun-free. Bass Pro Shops is under construction in Otter Creek.

Public for the first time, the woman who married Damien Echols discusses their relationship

For the vegetarian banh mi sandwich.

Our news partner Channel 4 has a news story that deserves repetition in full. More national headlines for the small people of Arkansas should follow directly.
