Alfredo Sanchez, 17, was shot and killed while at his job at a tire shop in the 1200 block of SE 29th Street in Oklahoma City on the afternoon of June 28, 2024. Police say Sanchez and another individual were handling a firearm when it accidentally discharged, striking him. Emergency services were called at about 2:08 PM and he was taken to a hospital, where he died of a single gunshot wound.

The Oklahoma City Police Department opened a homicide investigation; early reports describe the shooting as accidental and investigators are interviewing witnesses. Sanchez’s family described him as a beloved son and a father to an infant son, and his mother, Ana Lilia Sanchez, publicly urged anyone with information to come forward.

Did anyone working in that area or at the tire shop on June 28 see what happened or have information that could help investigators?
