TULSA, Okla. — One person is dead and two others are injured after a shooting at the QuikTrip at 15th and Denver.

Just before 9 p.m. on May 26, three people were shot. The Tulsa Police Department said the shooting started after a fight between a man, a QuikTrip security officer, and an off-duty security officer who was at the store.

The man was in a fight with his girlfriend in the parking lot when an unrelated group got involved and escalated the situation, TPD said. A witness then flagged down the security officer from the store.

The security officer tried to de-escalate the fight, but the man pulled out a handgun.

An off-duty security officer came out of the store and started arguing with the man. He then fired several shots, hitting the off-duty officer.

The working security officer shot at and hit the man.

The man died from his injuries. The off-duty security officer was shot and injured, and a woman walking across the street was shot in the stomach. The off-duty security officer and the woman are in the hospital recovering.

The Tulsa County District Attorney's Office will determine if charges will be filed.
