Six Tulsa schools briefly locked down after shooting

TULSA — Six schools were briefly placed on modified lockdown Thursday after a shooting in north Tulsa sent a man to the hospital with multiple gunshot wounds.

Ofcr. Jeanne MacKenzie tells KRMG the victim’s girlfriend called 911 about 12:20 p.m. to report the shooting.

One person, a female, is in custody and being questioned about the incident.

A second potential suspect, a male, is still on the loose.

Witnesses have told police he’s a white man, about six feet tall, possibly wearing a red baseball cap and driving a red car.

The victim was reportedly in his mid-thirties; there has been no update yet on his condition.

MacKenzie said it’s standard for TPS to lock down schools in an area where there has been a violent incident, and that there was never any immediate danger to the children.

The affected schools were Bell, Hamilton, McKinley, Mitchell, Owen, and Tulsa MET.
