An alleged fight over personal property and alcohol appears to be the motive behind the murders of two people near Omaha, Arkansas yesterday (07-28-10.)

Boone County Sheriff Danny Hickman says that deputies responded to reports of a shooting at 19001 Old Lowery Road about 5:50 p.m. and found 57 year -old Christine Ann Pryor and her husband 56 year-old William Eugene Pryor dead near the living room of the couples mobile home.

Two counts of capital murder and one count of aggravate burglary have been filed against a family member of the Pryor's, William Curtis Krohn, 55, who was living in another trailer on the property. Other family members live in a third trailer on the property.
Sheriff Danny Hickman says the Pryors hosted live music at "the farm" and says that deputies have been dispatched there numerous times for noise complaints.

Investigators seized numerous firearms from the property in an attempt to identify the murder weapon.

This was the second double homicide in two days in the Ozarks.

Johnnie and Coleen Wilson were found shot to death in their home near Bennett Springs State Park in Laclede County, MO, on Monday. A career criminal, Jesse Dean Driskill, has been charged with two counts of first-degree murder in the elderly couples deaths.
