Posted by Max Brantley on Fri, Sep 14, 2012 at 10:30 AM

Little Rock police have arrested two more suspects in the Tuesday robbery of Centennial Bank at 8th and Broadway. Latest are Booker Couch Jr., 35, of North Little Rock, and Marquel Jones, 20, of North Little Rock. Three men robbed the bank and were driven away by a fourth. One man was arrested earlier. Jones told police he had driven the getaway car, but "stated he was forced to do it at gunpoint." He was charged with aggravated robbery and theft all the same.

Gay TV producer at center of Imboden controversy to speak in LR

* REMEMBER IMBODEN? MEET THE MAN IN THE MIDDLE OF IT: I was happy to get this Facebook note today from Bryant Huddleston, the Imboden native and California TV producer, whose tentative invitation to speak at the Sloan-Hendrix High School graduation fell apart because a couple of School Board members (and many in the community apparently) didn't think it right to have a gay man speak to high school graduates, who included his sister.
