TULSA, Okla — Eight people are in the hospital being treated for non-life-threatening gunshot wounds on Aug. 4, according to Tulsa Police Sargent Dennis Radovich.

The incident began just after 4 a.m. at the Shell Station at the corner of Martin Luther King and Apache.

"The initial disturbance was happening on foot," said Radovich. "And then it looked like people were leaving it. I believe they were continuing to fire at each other as they were leaving."

He added, "My understanding is it was an argument between two females that escalated between family members, boyfriends."

Police sealed off the area for more than two hours while they collected shell casings and other evidence.

"We're contacting victims and possible witnesses, said Radovich. "And hopefully, we can find the suspects and search warrants and get everybody in custody."

We will update this story as more information becomes available.
