A 63-year-old Conway man was killed in a traffic accident in North Little Rock Sunday afternoon, the North Little Rock Police Department announced Tuesday.
James Burgess was pronounced dead at the scene of the accident in the area of 10000 Crystal Hill Rd., near De Wafelbakkers, a food manufacturer.
