Oklahoma law enforcement officials have arrested a 15-year-old male in the fatal shooting of a 16-year-old at a high school football game Friday night.
Oklahoma County Sheriff Tommie Johnson announced the arrest Wednesday, saying deputies along with other law enforcement agencies, apprehended the juvenile without incident in Spencer, a suburb of Oklahoma City.
Johnson did not release the juvenile’s name because he is a minor, nor could he comment on the investigation, which is being conducted by the Choctaw Police Department.

A 42-year-old man, who police have not yet identified, was shot in the chest and transported to Oklahoma University Trauma, where he spent the night in surgery and was later listed in stable condition.
