A teenager is in serious condition following a drive-by shooting outside a North Tulsa bar, late Sunday Night.
Tulsa Police Sergeant Steve Stoltz tells KTUL.com officers were originally flagged down by passersby in the area of 36th Street North & Peoria about a car that had fired "several shots" outside Tanzi's Snack Bar in the 3200 block of North Peoria.
When officers arrived at the scene, witnesses had varying stories on what had happened. Stoltz says officers were told that there 'was no shooting, well there was a shooting, a drive-by where the occupants of the car had fired shots into the air and no one was hit.' Stoltz went onto say they didn't "want police presence."
As officers were getting ready to leave the scene, police dispatch radioed that there was in fact a shooting victim being transported by car to a nearby hospital.
Stoltz says that "after about ten minutes officers were able to determine that the shootings were related."
Upon further investigation of the scene by officers, multiple shell casings were found up and down Peoria Avenue near the bar. Stoltz says the casings were of "multiple calibers."
The victim at last check was listed in serious condition at OSU Medical Center.
So far, Police have no motive for the shooting. Witnesses have given conflicting descriptions of the suspect vehicle involved.
If you have any information on this case that police might find useful, you're urged to call Tulsa Police Crimestoppers at (918) 596-COPS (2677).
