Previous Media Release;
On Sunday 06/03/2018, at 8:30PM, Owasso Police responded to a welfare check at a residence in the Elm Creek Neighborhood near 8000 N 120 E AVE in Owasso. Family members of the residents called authorities after being unable to contact the couple who lived at the house. Owasso medics entered the house to check on the residents and found two deceased adults inside. Initial observations indicated that the male and female in their 30’s appeared to have suffered gunshot wounds.
This investigation is in its very initial stages. Once a search warrant is obtained, detectives will begin processing the scene, which will likely continue throughout the night. We are not actively searching for any suspects at this time, nor do we have any evidence to suggest a known threat to resident in the area related to this incident.
An update will be provided when more information becomes available, but I do not anticipate any additional releases until tomorrow morning.
The names of the victims are not being released pending notification of next of kin.
