On the evening of March 23, 2025, 22-year-old Anthony Banuelos was shot and killed after an argument that began inside a vehicle escalated in the parking lot of a QuikTrip near 11th Street and Garnett Road in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The dispute moved from the car onto the pavement, and surveillance video from the store captured the confrontation and the shooting. Emergency crews found Banuelos around 7:30 p.m. with a gunshot wound; he was taken to a nearby hospital and later died of his injuries.

The person who fired the shot fled the scene but was tracked by law enforcement using a helicopter and FLOCK cameras. That individual later turned himself in and was questioned by homicide detectives before being released. The case file has been forwarded to the district attorney’s office, which is reviewing witness statements and the surveillance footage to decide whether to file charges.

Anthony was a devoted father of two; a fundraiser has been organized to support his family. If anyone witnessed the dispute in the QuikTrip parking lot or has additional information about what led to the shooting, please share what is known with investigators.
