TULSA, OK – Police have found the suspect vehicle in Tulsa's latest homicide. They are still searching for the suspects after a man was shot in the head shortly before 6 p.m. Saturday at 1030 North Troost.

The suspect vehicle was discovered at about 9 a.m. Sunday morning at 3200 North Jamestown.

The homicide is under investigation, but officers believe the shooting happened after a dispute among those who lived at 1030 North Troost and another house nearby, according to Captain Karen Tipler with the Tulsa Police Department.
