Deadly Downtown Tulsa Shooting Leaves One Dead, Five Injured During Bar District Chaos

On May 4, 2025, around 12:30 a.m., a sh**ting in downtown Tulsa near 2nd Street and Elgin Avenue left one person d**d and at least five others injured. The incident occurred during a large gathering outside bars at capacity, with hundreds of people on the streets. A fight broke out, escalating into gunfire as multiple individuals fired into and out of the crowd. Tulsa police, already present due to the crowd size, responded immediately.

Officers engaged two armed suspects: one was sh*t and injured while fleeing with a semi-automatic pistol, and the second, identified as 21-year-old Thurman Wilson, was f*t*lly sh*t after being deemed a threat. Five victims were struck by gunfire, with injuries ranging in severity, but none were reported as life-threatening. Multiple firearms and casings were recovered, and stray bullets damaged nearby buildings. No arrests have been made for the initial shooting, and police are seeking surveillance footage and witness accounts to identify additional suspects and victims.
