Police Identify Man Shot To Death In Tulsa Bar

Tulsa police have identified the victim in a deadly shooting at a bar near 91st and Memorial.

Homicide detectives say Omar Jimenez was the man shot and killed outside the Stillhouse Bar and Grill Saturday morning.

Jail records show that Cesar Fernandez should appear in court Monday in connection with the shooting. He was booked into jail on a first-degree murder complaint.

Police say Jimenez got into a fistfight with someone else at the bar and it eventually spilled outside. Officers say Fernandez was not involved in the fight, but he pulled out a gun and shot Jimenez, who later died at the hospital.

The other person in the fight left before police arrived. Several witnesses held Fernandez down until officers showed up and took him into custody.

Jail records show Fernandez is being held without bond.

This is Tulsa's 17th homicide of 2019.
