A drive-by shooting in southeast Oklahoma City left 56-year-old James Blue dead the morning of August 14, 2025. The shooting occurred at about 7:44 a.m. inside Blue’s home on Southeast 21st Street; a woman who was also in the house was struck but survived. First responders found Mr. Blue deceased at the scene, and the incident was recorded as the city’s 46th homicide of the year.

Investigators determined the shots were fired from a vehicle that fled the scene and traced the suspects about an hour away to Wewoka, Oklahoma, where two people were taken into custody later the same day. Those two were identified as 18-year-old Robert Rains and 20-year-old Azia Nelson-Louie and were booked into the Oklahoma County Detention Center on murder complaints. An interview with one suspect led police to a third person, 20-year-old TreQuan Johnson, who is alleged to have fired the weapon; he was arrested on August 15, 2025, and also booked on a first-degree murder complaint.

Anyone with information about the shooting, the victims, or the events that morning is asked to come forward.
