Lawful Oklahoma Gun Owner Shoots Girlfriend in the Back - Claims it was an Accident

Local news reports

Tulsa police arrested a suspect after an early Sunday morning shooting. 

Around 12:30 a.m., Deangelo Stevens got in an argument with his girlfriend and followed her into the bathroom where she was trying to hide. The police report states Stevens admitted, after being arrested, to "tusseling" with the victim when the gun went off. Steven's 4-year old daughter was present with his girlfriends 14-year-old daughter. The 14-year-old is who called 911 for her mother.

Stevens claims it was an accidental shooting, but police arrested and charged him with shooting with intent to kill, and domestic assault and battery in the presence of a minor. 

The woman was shot in her back and is in critical condition at St. Francis hospital.


I wonder if he had a concealed carry permit?  Unless some invasive reporter comes up with the info, no one will bother to check. It has nothing to do with the case. 

What do you think?  Please leave a comment.

  1. If you'd do the slightest bit of searching, instead of wild speculation, you'd find out that Stevens has convictions for domestic battery, transporting weapons with the serial numbers removed, and possession of illegal substances.

    So what we learn here is that you're wrong about him being a lawful gun owner and wrong about the possibility of his having a carry license.

    At least you've figured out how to copy and paste articles...

    1. I didn't see those details. Where did you find them, in another article? I believe you. Guess I was wrong in this case. But don't get carried away with yourself, I'm usually right.

    2. No, you usually don't check. And when we do, we so often find proof that you were wrong.

      But I see that you haven't changed the title or your speculation here.

    3. You never check, so you have no idea if you're right or not. And here, when you've been shown that you were wrong, you still leave the title as "lawful gun owner."

      Also, you didn't talk about your pet peve here: the article said that the gun went off during a fight. Later it told about the charges. By saying this, the paper is able to communicate that the gun was fired; someone was injured; that the different sides are arguing over how the gun was fired, and maybe by whom it was fired; and on top of that they were able to avoid taking a position on something they don't know about and opening themselves up for a huge lawsuit.

    4. You say I "never check?" And when you do, I'm "so often" proven wrong.

      Greg, you are so full of shit, it's tiresome.

    1. Keeping Mikeb honest takes a lot of work, so we all have to pitch in.

    2. This is not a question of Keeping Mikeb honest." Saying that is an example of your lying twisting bullshit. I made my post based on the article I read.

      This was item number one in my search of the man's name and location. Apparently, someone is checking on the status of people who get arrested.
