On the evening of Saturday, April 1, 2023, a shooting at the Whiskey Barrel Saloon in south Oklahoma City left three men dead, including 29-year-old Eric Oberholtzer. Police found multiple gunshot victims; Oberholtzer, Francisco Tanajara, 38, and Andrew Sump, 28, were pronounced dead at the scene. The confrontation was identified as a clash between rival motorcycle clubs.

Oberholtzer was the Oklahoma City chapter president of the Homietos Motorcycle Club. Court documents and surveillance footage describe members of the Bandidos and their affiliates following Oberholtzer and another Homieto, Tyler Myers, into the bar, where a physical fight escalated into a gunfight. Tyler Myers, 34, was later taken into custody on a charge of first-degree murder after treatment for gunshot wounds. Authorities also arrested two alleged Bandidos members, Douglas Jacobs, 47, and Nicklus Sweet, 42; Jacobs faced murder charges and court documents allege Jacobs shot Oberholtzer as he tried to reload.

If anyone has information about that night or knew Eric, please come forward to share what you know.
