On the night of Saturday, March 30, 2024, Luis Garcia, a Hispanic/Latino man, was sitting in a pickup truck in a mobile home park in East Tulsa when an argument began after the vehicle stopped near East Admiral Place and 121st East Avenue. Neighbors reported the dispute was about the truck blocking the street and that a fight drew attention in the neighborhood.

Witnesses said a man identified as Elwyn Lopez, then 22, emerged from a nearby home, approached the pickup and fired multiple shots into the cab. Officers who responded to calls about the shooting found the truck parked in the middle of the street and discovered both Luis Garcia and the other man, Jose Garcia-Reyes, dead from gunshot wounds, one in the driver’s seat and one in the back seat.

Detectives interviewed multiple witnesses at the scene and identified Lopez as the suspect; he was taken into custody the following day and charged with two counts of first-degree murder. If anyone saw the shooting or has information about that night, please come forward and share what was witnessed.
