TULSA — Tulsa police on Thursday afternoon identified two people who were killed Wednesday night in a shooting in the parking lot of a Tulsa gym near 51st and Memorial.
The shooting happened just before 6:30 p.m. in the parking lot of VASA Fitness.
Police say there were three total victims. The two people who died were identified as Malik Morgan, 18, and DeAunte McKnight, 25.
A third victim was admitted to a local hospital for his wound, which does not appear to be life-threatening, police said.
Police say two of the three victims appeared to have been involved in an altercation, when guns were drawn and a gunfight erupted.
For those working out earlier this evening, they say the violence hits close to home.
"I think everybody was kind of tensed up," said Oscar Pineda. "It literally is right out here in the parking lot. You wouldn't expect something so close right here. A stray bullet could have went inside or something."
Officers are still looking for additional witnesses but tell us they've accounted for everyone involved in that gunfight.
