DUNCAN — Duncan Police and emergency services raced to 11th and Cypress Wednesday evening to the scene of a shooting which resulted in the death of an unidentified male from gunshot wounds.

Two people were placed into custody at the scene of the shooting, but as of press time, no charges had been filed.

Around 7 p.m., Duncan dispatch sent out the call that a shooting had taken place at 1015 Cypress and officers arrived on scene to discover an unidentified white male with several gunshots wounds to his chest, Detective Donny Foraker said at the scene of the crime.

“It appears to be a domestic issue, possibly involving a third party, an ex-boyfriend,” Foraker said Wednesday at the scene.

“Until we get these people sat down and talked to, we don’t know.”

Rifles were drawn by Duncan officers as they approached the house, not knowing what to expect.

The victim was quickly loaded onto an emergency stretcher by medical personnel and Duncan firefighters and brought out of the home and loaded into an AMR ambulance and transported to Duncan Regional Hospital.

Officers handcuffed a male and female and placed them in separate squad cars for transport to the Duncan Police Station for questioning, Foraker said, for questioning.

No other details were available.
