On March 12, 2017, 18-year-old Cynthia Peraza of Tulsa was fatally shot after visiting a home near Pine and Gilcrease Museum Road. She had accompanied a friend, Christopher Foster, who reportedly went to the residence of Antonio Simmons to try to reconcile with his ex-girlfriend, Simmons’ stepdaughter. An argument led to Peraza, Foster and another teenage girl being asked to leave. As they returned to their vehicle, Simmons followed them and opened fire.

Peraza, who was seated in the backseat, and Foster were both hit and died of their wounds. The third teenager, driving, was also shot but managed to drive away to get help. Police arrested 45-year-old Antonio Simmons soon after and charged him with two counts of first-degree murder plus assault and battery with a deadly weapon and possession of a firearm after a former felony conviction. Simmons was reported to have a criminal history dating to the 1990s. Peraza was remembered by friends and family as caring and beautiful and had attended Memorial High School.
