Nathan Isaiah Hull, 38, was killed on the night of July 30, 2021, in Tulsa, Oklahoma. A musician, artist and DJ known to friends and family as Nate, he was working as a bouncer and DJ at DD’s Double Shots near 11th Street and South Sheridan when patrons told him a man in the parking lot appeared to be breaking into cars. Nathan went outside to intervene and was confronted by 18-year-old Chris Bratton, who shot him. Nathan died in the bar parking lot; he was a father and a visible member of the local music scene whose protection of patrons cost him his life.

Witnesses followed Bratton to a nearby QuikTrip and alerted police; Bratton was arrested and charged with first-degree murder, shooting with intent to kill, and firearms violations. The case shocked the Tulsa community and left family and friends grieving a man remembered for his talent and his protective spirit.
