TULSA, Okla. — The Tulsa Police Department arrested multiple people after officers said a call reporting an attempted shooting led to a chase through the Tulsa area.
Officers responded to reports of a shooting near North Garrison Avenue and East 55th Place North around 3:00 p.m. on Thursday.
When officers arrived, they said two people reported they had been shot at while sitting in their car and provided a description of the suspect’s car.
At the Admiral and Yale intersection, an officer said they spotted a car matching the given description and attempted to stop the car.
