There were about a dozen police cars in the area, and investigators were going door to door as they try to piece together what happened.

"The Tulsa Police Homicide Unit is working with Patrol and the Organized Gang Unit to locate potential witnesses to this shooting," said Sergeant Dave Walker, Homicide.
