Tulsa Police documents show the two suspects arrested in a shooting spree that killed three people and wounded two others have both confessed.
The documents given to The Associated Press on Monday say 19-year-old Jake England confessed to shooting three people and 32-year-old Alvin Watts confessed to shooting two.
The shootings early Friday morning left three people dead and two seriously wounded. It's not clear from the police affidavit which man shot which victim, but the document says police believe Watts shot two of the three people who died.
The suspects haven't been charged yet, but are in the Tulsa County jail on more than $9 million bond each. All five shooting victims were black.
Jake England's father was shot and killed by a black man two years ago, and police say revenge could be a possible motive.
