The Tulsa Police Department are investigating a shooting at the Best Buy located between Yale and Sheridan along I-44. Police say the surveillance video from Best Buy shows the shooter going in between two cars and shooting the first victim in the back they don't know why he was targeted but he wasn't the only one hit. The first victim was shot just outside the door and the other male victim was hit by a stray bullet inside the store.
"These two individuals were not connected in anyway. This was just another customer shopper inside the store and caught a stray bullet," says Sgt. Mike Williams, Tulsa Police.
The shoppers inside couldn't believe what was happening.
"I was in the back getting something for my computer. When I heard what sounded like shelves falling down or something large hitting the floor and I heard it multiple times. I just figured it was equipment or something," says Joshua Davis.
Davis says it was what happened next that made him change his mind.
"Then I saw everyone start running toward the back with these confused looks on their faces and I realized that wasn't equipment and I had to get out fast from inside," says Davis.
There were some nurses inside the building so they ran to help the victim inside.
"We ran to the front of the store. My wife is a nurse and she started CPR on him," says Earl Dunham.
Both victims were taken the area hospitals and pronounced dead there. Police don't have a motive right now but think the shooter and the intended target know each other.
"In my opinion there is going to be a relationship between somebody in this group ordinarily you wouldn't see for no reason somebody walking up to somebody going into a business and shot them," says Sgt. Dave Walker, Tulsa Police.
Sgt. Walker told
KTUL.com on Sunday that the victims were
58-year-old Graydon 'Wesley' Brown of Tulsa, an innocent bystander, and 34-year-old Scott Norman of Tulsa, the intended target.
Most people in the store are still in shock that this has happened.
"I passed that area just 25 seconds earlier and was thankful that I was in the back at the moment," says Davis.
Best Buy employees have boarded up the windows and it does remain closed until further notice.
If you have any information about this shooting you are asked to call 918-596-COPS.
