In the early morning hours of April 9, 2024, gunfire near an apartment complex at 905 N. Rockwell in Oklahoma City left 22-year-old Koby Caraveo with fatal gunshot wounds. Paramedics took Caraveo to a local hospital in critical condition; he died later that day. His death was reported as the 18th homicide in Oklahoma City for the year.

Officers arrested 28-year-old Christopher Burris shortly after the shooting and booked him into the Oklahoma County Detention Center. Initial charges were assault with a deadly weapon and possession of a firearm after a former felony conviction; those counts were filed because Caraveo was still alive at the time of arrest. Authorities said the district attorney’s office was expected to address the charges following Caraveo’s death. The investigation remains ongoing and police have asked anyone with information to contact the Homicide Tip-Line.

If anyone knew Koby or witnessed the shooting near N. Rockwell on April 9, please contact the Homicide Tip-Line with information.
