A family argument in Shady Point, Oklahoma, ended with 21-year-old Douglas Doug Byrd shot during an altercation with his stepfather on the night of Sunday, August 10, 2014. Emergency responders transported Byrd by air to a Tulsa hospital; he died of his injuries and was pronounced dead on Thursday, August 14, 2014. The death left the family grieving.

Police took the stepfather into custody for questioning immediately after the shooting but did not formally arrest him at that time. The Le Flore County District Attorney’s office took over the investigation, and authorities said they were exploring whether the shooting occurred in self-defense. No additional information about arrests or charges has been released.

Does anyone have information about the events on Reagan Street that night or about the investigation that followed?
