Midwest City police: man shot to death while playing video games in home – Oklahoman.com


A man who was playing video games inside a mobile home Sunday was shot and killed, Midwest City police said.

At 4:41 p.m., officers were dispatched to a shooting at Village Oaks Trailer Park, 9429 SE 29, where they found Joshua Allen, 21, dead from a single shot to the chest.

A 911 caller said, “I need an ambulance fast, my brother was messing with a gun,” and it accidentally went off and struck his best friend.

An adult male living at the address was cleaning and clearing a semi-automatic handgun when it accidentally discharged and struck Allen, according to several witnesses inside the trailer, authorities said.

“This is still an active case but at this time, all evidence indicates the shooting was not intentional — an unfortunate, tragic event while mishandling a loaded firearm,” Police Chief Brandon Clabes said.

Investigators will present the case to the Oklahoma County District Attorney’s office for review and any possible criminal charges.
