“The incident occurred during an unsanctioned party that began after dark and was advertised across multiple social media platforms, drawing a large crowd of young adults from across the metro area,” EPD’s statement read.
EPD responded to multiple 911 calls reporting shots fired.
Oklahoma City Police and the Oklahoma Highway Patrol also responded, according to EPD.
The trouble reportedly started when some of the party attendees started arguing with each other about their boyfriends, witness Jeremiah Braxton told The Associated Press.
“Everybody got scared, dudes was panicking, women was panicking, people seeing their friends fight,” Braxton said.
Another witness, Michael Triplet, was shot in the rear. He told the AP it was a “scary situation.”
