Police Respond To Shooting Scenes In North Tulsa

Tulsa Police were called to two separate shooting scenes in north Tulsa. They found shell casings littering a street near 36th Street North and North Peoria.

Officers say the first shooting took place on Lansing Place where they found more than 25 bullet casings in the street. They say a car was found a few streets away with bullet holes, and a baby was taken to the hospital.

Police say the second shooting happened just one hour later at North Hartford where a man visiting someone's home heard shots - and was shot in the back. That took place in the 3100 block of North Hartford.

EMSA personnel transported the shooting victim to the hospital. They say he is a 39-year-old man in fair condition.

"I came out, and I seen the fire trucks and the ambulance pulling up, and so I come out to see what was going on and the police," said neighbor Delancy Crisp. "I didn't hear no shooting."

The shot-up car was found near Hawthorne Elementary on North Elgin. Police believe it was from the shooting on Lansing Place.

An EMSA spokesperson says an adult male and a child were transported from that scene. Police said a baby was injured by flying glass. They have not released information about the child's condition.

As of Saturday night, there had been no arrests in connection with either shooting.
