A northwest Oklahoma City apartment became the scene of a fatal shooting on March 22, 2026, when a firearm discharged during a weekend gathering and a 2-year-old girl, identified as Khani Rodriguez, was struck. Police say the shooting happened near Northwest 39th and Youngs Boulevard and officers responded about 10:30 a.m., with the child’s death confirmed at the scene.

Authorities reported a 22-year-old man was handling a gun in the presence of several children when the weapon fired, fatally wounding Khani. That man was arrested and booked on a complaint of first-degree manslaughter. The investigation into the circumstances of the shooting is ongoing.
