US shooting: Three women killed, baby wounded in Tulsa, Oklahoma
AP25 Jul, 2023 06:47 AM
Three women were shot and killed and a baby was wounded during a shooting at a Tulsa apartment complex, Tulsa police said.
Officers responded to a report of a triple killing at Wood Creek Apartments in east Tulsa and found three women dead inside, police said in a press release. An infant who had also been shot was found next to one of the women.
Police say the infant underwent surgery and was expected to survive. A 13-year-old boy was inside the apartment and hid in a back bedroom when he heard the gunshots, police said.
The boy managed to escape out of an apartment window and called for help, police said.
Police identified the dead women as Ashley Atwell, 38; Annaway Mackey, 20; and Sara Gonzales, 19.
Caleb Venson, the ex-boyfriend of one of the women, was arrested on three complaints of first-degree murder, first-degree burglary and shooting with intent to kill, police said.
Venson was being held without bond, jail records show.
Formal charges had not been filed, and jail records don’t indicate the name of an attorney who could speak on Venson’s behalf.
