Man was shot dead in a liquor store parking lot Friday night

About 8:30 p.m., a 36-year-old man was shot in the face outside the Glass House Party Supply liquor store, 2547 N Cincinnati Ave. The man, whose name was not released Friday night, was pronounced dead at the scene, police said. A witness told police that three men ran from the scene and that the shooter ditched a hooded shirt and a handgun in front of a house before running inside it. Police took three people from a nearby house into custody and recovered the shirt and gun, authorities said.
One of the people taken into custody matched the description of the shooter "to a T,” said Tulsa police Capt. Shawn King."We’re pretty certain that we do have the shooters in custody,” King said of the arrests.Officers were having crowd-control issues at the crime scene, as about two dozen onlookers and distraught family members stood in the parking lot where the shooting occurred, some going beyond the crime-scene tape.
