An Oklahoma woman has been arrested just hours after another woman was shot to death outside of a Tulsa QuikTrip.

Officers responded to the QuikTrip near 61st and Highway 169 Thursday night before 11 p.m. When they arrived, they found the body of Estrella Mendoza.

Overnight, officers learned that Mendoza visited the gas station with her husband and sister-in-law, Alexis Flanner.

Crime Scene

Investigators believe Flanner and Mendoza argued before the shooting.

Flanner was found near 51st and Yale and was taken into custody. Because Flanner is Native American, the FBI will take over the case.

Mendoza’s family set up a GoFundMe to raise money for her nine children during this tragic time. You can donate here.
