Fist Fight Ends With Shots Fired, Tulsa Police Searching For Suspect

Tulsa Police are still searching or a suspect after a man was shot outside the Big Easy Lounge near 61^st and Peoria.

Officers say several shots were fired and the victim was hit in the torso. Officers say the suspect and victim may have gotten into a first fight before the shots were fired.
