Five women and two men were wounded, ranging in age from 20 to 65, with several remaining hospitalized and one woman listed in critical condition.

In addition, two police officers were injured in the shootout with the suspect: Fordyce Police Officer James Johnson, 31, was released from a Little Rock hospital and Stuttgart Police Officer John Hudson, 24, received minor injuries.

The suspect, 44-year-old Travis Eugene Posey, 44, of New Edinburg, was treated for non-life-threatening injuries from the shootout with police before being transported to Ouachita County Detention Center.
