OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- Oklahoma City police say an automatic weapon was used to kill four people outside a cluster of southeast-side mobile homes last week.

26-year-old Amy Wright; 49-year-old James Swindle Junior; 56-year-old Terry -L- Smith and 57-year-old James -D- Alderson were found on Memorial Day.

New details in a search warrant for a nearby residence included the recovery of 37 casings from the crime scene. The ammunition is most common with SK and AK assault rifles.

Police inspector Ken Whitebird says he got a tip from a confidential informant who said a man and a woman provided detailed information about the crime that was only available to investigators.

The residence of the man and woman was searched June 1st, and a man was arrested on marijuana complaints.

But the man wasn't identified as a suspect and is no longer in jail.
