The victims have been identified

The City of Tulsa Medical Examiner’s Office has identified all five victims who were killed in Wednesday’s shooting at a downtown medical building. The deceased are identified as Dr. Jerry B. Ennis, 59; Shannon J. Smith, 42; Peggy Nadell, 65; Christie Louise Lawton, 52; and Dr. Kevin Kiley, 53 — all Tulsans. Three other victims have been identified by their family: Jennifer Jacobs (wife of John Daniel Jackson), Michael Chance Brewster and Laura Garcia Swisher (wife of Andrew Joseph Swisher). On Friday afternoon, Jake England was named as a suspect in shootings that left five dead and two others injured Wednesday morning at a business on East First Street near South Boulder Avenue. A second suspect is still being sought. Police say they believe it was an isolated incident involving only England and his co-worker, Robert Jonathan Williams Jr., 29. Both men were employees of Excel Industries, where several workers were gunned down before police officers fatally shot both suspects. A motive for the killings remains unclear. Authorities said they don't believe there is any further threat to public safety related to the incident... Police said they responded to 911 calls about gunshots around 8:57 a.m., when officers found four people suffering from gunshot wounds inside Excel Industries' plant at 315 S.

The shooter’s identity is unknown as of now

Authorities have yet to release information about a suspect or suspects, and are asking everyone to remain on lockdown until they’ve completed their search of all offices. The shooter could be in one of those buildings right now. Police are saying that all non-emergency personnel should stay clear of those buildings and out of the area until they give word otherwise. In addition, authorities have asked that no one spread rumors or speculation on social media regarding an active shooter situation like that which is occurring at our city’s medical district today. It is imperative for social media users to stick with reputable news sources for updates and refrain from jumping to conclusions about an ongoing investigation.
