Three people were killed and another two were critically injured in several shootings early Friday morning, Tulsa police said.
Police are still trying to determine the circumstances surrounding the incidents but don’t believe the victims knew each other.
Officers found Dannaer Fields, 49, lying in a yard with a gunshot wound shortly after 1 a.m. in the 1000 block of East 51st Place North, police said. Fields later died at St. John Medical Center.
Three minutes later, police found two men with apparent gunshot wounds in another yard two blocks to the east. The men were taken to St. John Medical Center and St. Francis Hospital in critical condition but were expected to survive, police said. They have not been identified.
Officers then found Bobby Clark, 54, in the street with a gunshot wound about 1:50 a.m. in the 300 block of West 63rd Street North. Clark later died at Hillcrest Medical Center.
About 8:30 a.m., officers received a call of a body in the 800 block of East 36th Street North, said Capt. Steve Odom. Police discovered a man later identified as William Allen, 31, lying in the yard of Jack’s Memory Chapel with a gunshot wound to the chest, Odom said. Allen was pronounced dead at the scene.
Police are looking for a white pickup truck that may have been in the area when the shootings occurred, Walker said. No further descriptions were available.
