Police Examine Racial Motive In Tulsa Shootings

Police say there may be racial undertones to a shooting in Tulsa, Okla. that left at least three dead and two more injured. Jake England and Alvin Watts, 19 and 32 respectively, were arrested.

NBC News reports:

Police are examining whether the shootings might be a hate crime, as England, 19, had posted racially charged comments on his Facebook page about the two-year anniversary of his father’s death, the Tulsa World reported.

England wrote: “Today is two years that my dad has been gone shot by a f—— n—– it’s hard not to go off between that and sheran I’m gone in the head.”
