Police are looking for a suspect accused of shooting and killing a man Wednesday at an apartment complex near Northeast 10th and Midwest City Boulevard.

“I guess he died in the hospital which is crazy cause I saw the guy alive,” said witness Kalin Cheadle.        

Cheadle and Elijah Drake were inside their apartment when shots were fired.

“There was no sound other than the gunshots,” said Cheadle.

The two went to investigate and were unsure if they were in danger.

“I came outside with my firearm because I wanted the protection,” said Drake.          

“I told him to get away from the windows because I heard gunshots,” said Cheadle.

Once outside they said they saw a man fall to the ground along with the suspected gunman.

“We saw the individual over there lay down. I found casings on the ground and I called one of the officers over,” said Drake.

“I just heard the gunshots and I walked outside, and I saw the guy picking his gun up off the ground,” said Cheadle.

Other witnesses explained to police what they saw.

“Apparently one black male was chasing another black male. Shots were fired and our suspect left the scene in a four-door vehicle,” said Midwest City Police Chief Brandon Clabes.    

Elnora Whiters came home to a crime scene.

“My daughter checked my windows to see if the bullets hit in my house,” said Whiters.       

She said she's just glad she wasn't home at the time of the shooting.

“I’m 76 and if I would have been at home and I heard shots I would have got my weapon,” said Whiters.

Police are looking for the suspect.

They don't have a distinctive description.
