Surveillance video: Shots fired at Tulsas Equality Center damage window Not eight hours after damage from a pellet gun was discovered at Tulsas Equality Center early Monday, a man came into the lobby yelling profanities and anti-LGBTQ rhetoric at front-desk staff.
At least one person had fired several shots from a pellet gun at the entrance of the Dennis R. Neill Equality Center about 12:20 a.m.
Police located 13 pellets that hit the front door and windows of the building at Fourth Street and Kenosha Avenue downtown, police spokesman Leland Ashley said.
Surveillance video shows a white four-door pickup drive west in front of the building. Several shots were fired from the vehicle.
The pellets did not penetrate the reinforced window, said Toby Jenkins, the centers executive director. An employee discovered the damage later in the morning.
