2 more arrested in Ark. robbery murder of Westbrook man

Despite being juveniles, police say both Darrius Stewart, 17, and Keith Keshawn Harris, 16, are being charged as adults in Arkansas.

Two additional suspects have been arrested in connection with the murder of a Maine man last week during an Arkansas robbery.

Senior Airman Shawn Mckeough, a Westbrook native, was killed last Friday during a armed robbery at a Valero gas station in North Little Rock.

Police said Mckeough attempted to stop the robbery and was fatally shot.
