Norman Patrick Robinson, 63, was shot and killed on April 6, 2026, inside his Oklahoma City apartment in the 3500 block of North St. Charles Street near MacArthur Boulevard. Known to friends and family as Stormin Norman, his obituary describes a life of curiosity and hands-on interests — reading, science, math, mechanics, computers, nature, camping, and time with his dog — and remembers him as a strong personality who liked fixing things and helping others.

Police say the shooting occurred shortly before 11:00 a.m. after an altercation involving Robinson and a neighbor. Witnesses and surveillance video described a sequence in which the suspect walked past Robinson’s open door, returned and fired a pistol into the unit, then went back to his own apartment. Officers arrested the neighbor, Aaron Hall Jr., shortly after the shooting; reports listed his age as 37 or 38. He was booked on a complaint of second-degree murder and on suspicion of firearm possession after a felony conviction. Authorities described the investigation as ongoing and asked anyone with information to contact the Oklahoma City Police Department Homicide Tip Line.

Robinson’s family and community have been left mourning a man remembered as restless and unforgettable. Does anyone have information about the incident or knew Norman and can share details that might help the investigation?
