On the morning of April 18, 2023, 35-year-old Lundin Hathcock was sitting at a desk inside the Rudisill Library in Tulsa when a man approached from behind and shot him in the back of the head. Hathcock was taken to a hospital and later died of his wounds. The attack was described as random; authorities say the shooter did not know Hathcock.

After the library shooting, the same gunman drove to a nearby QuikTrip and fatally shot 55-year-old James McDaniel in another apparently unprovoked, execution-style attack. Surveillance footage captured the shooter firing at a security guard and another person outside the store. Police arrested the suspect at the scene.

Tulsa County prosecutors announced that evidence suggested race played a role in the attacks, and charges were filed that included hate crime enhancements alongside counts of first-degree murder and shooting with intent to kill. Lundin, born in Tulsa and living in Wyandotte, Oklahoma, was remembered as someone who loved the outdoors.

If anyone knew Lundin or has information about the April 18 incidents, please share what you know.
