Originally ran here
as: LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS -- An unusual murder case has prosecutors invoking a rarely used state law. It stems from a fatal robbery that happened Friday night at Sims Bar-B-Que in Little Rock.
Police are still waiting for autopsy results from the medical examiner to determine which bullet led to the death of 20-year-old Willie Tully. Detectives say Friday night, Tully and 17-year-old Otis Brewer went into the restaurant to rob it.
In the process the owner, Ron Settlers, shot the two robbers, killing Tully. Investigators say they're not certain who fired the fatal shot. But, prosecutors have filed charges against 17-year-old Brewer for capital murder and aggravated robbery.
They say he's responsible, whether or not his shot killed Tully.
Pulaski County Prosecutor, Larry Jegley, tells KARK News 4 "if you put into effect a cause of events that results in someone hurt or killed then you should be held liable for your actions." Jegley says the intent is to make sure there are consequences for such violent actions.
