Tulsa Police Chief Wendell Franklin identified Michael Louis (some media outlets report as Michael Lewis), 45, of Muskogee, Oklahoma, as the gunman who shot and killed four people on the second floor of the Natalie Medical Building at Saint Francis Health System on Wednesday evening, before reportedly taking his own life.
Franklin said around 4:52 pm local time, Louis opened fire on the second floor of the medical building, targeting a doctor (Dr. Preston Phillips) who operated on his back on May 19.
Franklin said Louis complained to the hospital multiple times about pain after the surgery, though it’s unclear what Lewis requested.
Officers recovered a letter written by the suspect with his clear intent to kill Dr. Phillips and “anyone who got in his way.”
Franklin shared the names of the four victims Louis killed, including Dr. Phillips, Dr. Stephanie Husen, Amanda Glenn (receptionist), and William Love (a patient).
Louis was armed with an AR-15-style rifle he bought the same day and a .40-caliber Smith & Wesson semi-automatic handgun on Sunday.
“The information that we have at the current time is that they were legally purchased firearms, one purchased an hour and some change before the actual shooting event took place, and the other purchased three days before the shooting took place,” Franklin said.
Authorities recovered 30 bullet casings from the AR-15-style rifle and seven from the handgun. The shootings took place between 4:52 pm – 4:58 pm. After the six-minute shooting spree targeting Dr. Phillips and anyone else, the gunman took his own life.
The family of Lewis spoke with The Daily Beast:
“Tulsa Police called me and verified that it’s my uncle,” Louis‘ niece said Thursday morning. “We are so distraught.” She requested not to be named in the story. “I don’t even want to be associated because I’m so disgusted,” she added.
Local media released a picture of Louis.

No one is safe in the failed violent US madhouse banana republic. The idiots are spending billions on fanning wars around the world and the rotten failed state is a murderous joke.
I understand people protecting themselves with pistols….
How does the NRA justify machine guns? Even the police is not safe from a person armed with an AR-15
The gun lobbyists all want to say its about the constitution…. maybe it is but not the automatic machine guns!
American savages are starving but arming with military grade weapons to kill each, since this shooting another one at a graveyard in Iowa has killed 4 more morons. SLAVA ROSSIYA!
The Seppo gun-toting bastards are killing everyone mate, even at funerals.
US: Three dead in Iowa church shooting following Biden gun speech
The attacker fatally shot two women before killing himself in the parking lot after the US leader urged more gun control.
Assault rifles are necessary modern weapons for citizen militias to protect themselves and their communities from the same in the ranks of rogue state police, guards, and military. That is why Americans have that constitutional right. Where the Americans are confused is only on the issue of who should have them, how they are licensed, under what conditions someone may receive and maintain a license, and how these weapons and their ammunition are stored and secured (e.g. privately or collectively with mutual responsibilities, etc.).
If you honestly believe that citizens should be prevented from owning assault weapons per se, then you are a fucking idiot with no clue about the real world. Just try banning private vehicles (another type of lethal weapon requiring training and a license) and just see how far you get (oh, I forgot… malignant fucks like you are trying to do just that).
If you just don’t get it, then just keep your trap shut in public. A disarmed people is the very condition of tyranny, and schmucks like you are the tyrant’s right hand.
The Jews will disarm the rednecks, just a matter of time now.
I doubt they will. They’ll just pass a couple of laws making it harder to get guns.
I gave this comment a positive mark, but it is the negative count that increased, how can that be? It seems no matter what I clicked the negative count increased. That’s not honest.
I sometimes notice here that when I click the positive once on a particular comment, its count increases by +4 and sometimes +5, but for some comments, no matter what it is clicked it is the negative count that increased.
You only get to vote once.
Here’s a down vote for you.
Truth speaking an unarmed population is easiest to control.
In my f…up country only the police, fokers in power and their guard dogs own a firearm. By law.
I wish you a pneumatic pistol in hand when pointed at with an AK-47 from close range, or better a javelin aimed at you from 50 feet (17 meters).
I got the news someone in you neighborhood purchased a javelin online at a discount.
Better get an assault rifle right away, you never know …
If a “bad” person wants a gun to kill or hurt people, that person can get their hands on it no matter what.
Now, why should others get the blame for that moron?
The mass shooting is part of the anglo-zionist culture.
American blacks make up 13% of the population and yet commit over half of all murders in the US. Even in Europe where there is no history of blacks being enslaved there, blacks commit a higher rate of murder than their percentage of the population. One can only conclude it is a temperament, and henceforth genetic issue, and hence they evolved to be prone to violence.
He’s just an Okie from Muskogee
Verry sad. He was verry sexy.
Doctors ARE getting away with some very serious crimes as well as murder. Sometimes people do these things because there is no justice in our world.
Awful. It’s Ironic that medical mistakes are a leading cause of death. Even more lethal than guns.
When it comes killing innocent civilians Americans are still amateurs compared to Stalin’s Soviet wonderland and other murdering communist bastards.
At least you have to walk a mile in a shoe of a leader in order to make a comment about the Leader… guess you are not from EU, do you known how was migration all over EU and Russia thats why wars started between goverments while rich families and breeds were in both sides of antagonist sides and get richer from war. Chose the War between Empires, you will always see the hand of the Richs getting richer from wars in both countries. Almost every western family guided by Machiavelli thoughts since Industrial Era. Stalin didnt had another option, have to chop some duvious loyalty arm on the tree in order to grown new innocent fully russian citizens arm and leafs. Russia lost lots of knowledge, instead of killing them I would go to reeducation camps and controlled environments so they could live and help the country also, but Russia didnt have systems to support reeducation since they were fully involved in Cold War. The lack of the creation of multiple parallels systems of goverments in differents republics was one of the main issues of the falling of USSR.
~200 mass murders in this year. Mass = 4 or more dead people, not including a murderer. Every year number of people killed by firearms in the US is higher than for 8 years in Donbas until this spring: 20 thousands against 12, though data on Donbas is very inaccurate.
