OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) – An Oklahoma judge has ordered the release of a 19-year-old man arrested in connection with a shooting that left at least eight people wounded following an NBA playoff game.
According to online court records, an order was signed Wednesday to release Rodney Hill from custody, pending additional investigation into the shootings Monday night in the Bricktown entertainment district. Officers arrested a 17-year-old male late Tuesday in connection with the crime.
Eight people suffered gunshot wounds and a pregnant woman was hurt but not shot when gunfire erupted about 11:35 p.m. following the Thunder-Lakers playoff game. Authorities say one person remains in critical condition, and the others are in good condition.
Thunder officials announced the organization will no longer show the game broadcast on the video board outside Chesapeake Energy Arena.
