Tulsa, OK – 2 little boys shot in parking lot of Okla. store

TULSA, Okla. (AP) Authorities say two young boys have been wounded in a shooting at a north Tulsa convenience store.

Police say the children, whose estimated ages are 2 and 5, were shot in the parking lot of Bill's Quick Stop just before 3 p.m. Thursday.

Sgt. Dedlorn Sanders says one of the boys was grazed in the head by a bullet and the other child was shot in the leg. The boys' parents took the children to the hospital, but Sanders says he didn't know their conditions.

He says he was told the wounds weren't life-threatening.

The boys' names weren't released.

Police say the shooter may have known members of the children's family. There is a person of interest in the case, but no arrests have been made.
