On November 23, 2013, a converted garage on North New Haven Avenue in Tulsa became the scene of a deadly, close-range attack. Charles Dake, 34, was shot and killed along with his wife Melissa Dake, 35, and two others, 54-year-old Glenda Harper and 46-year-old Tammy Brunson. A fifth person was wounded and survived. Witnesses heard a vehicle speed away after the shooting; several children in the main part of the house were uninjured.

Tulsa Police say an unknown gunman entered the garage while a gathering was underway. Methamphetamine was reportedly found at the scene, and the residence had a history of drug-related arrests, so investigators have examined a possible drug-related motive. Authorities also believe the shooter likely knew the victims and the layout of the home. Despite many leads, the case remains unsolved and no arrests have been announced.
