Tulsa, Okla. — Tulsa police make an arrest in the city's 59th homicide for the year.

15-year old Brittany Urena died Sunday after she was shot during a party at the Belmont Park town homes near 21st and Garnett.

“Homicide and warrants detectives served a warrant on a house (Tuesday) in reference to this homicide. The suspect was inside,” TPD said.

17-year-old Jose Zamarippa told detectives that he and the girl had been playing with a gun when Zamarippa pointed the gun at the girl and shot her in the chest.

She died on the way to the hospital.

We're told Zamarippa ran away after the shooting and hid the gun.

Police said, “We knew who he was from the first night. We had the street name for him which was “Trigger” or “EBK.”

EBK stands for everybody’s killer.
