A woman shot at a trailer park in Ocheleta has died, according to Washington County Lieutenant Jon Copeland. Michele E. Mayes was declared dead at the scene due to gunshot wounds to the upper torso area.

The gunman, Mayes’ estranged boyfriend John Jeffrey Thomas was flown to a Tulsa hospital by Air Evac helicopter. Thomas had what appeared to be two gunshot wounds in his chest. He is in stable but critical condition. 

Washington County Deputies reported to the Prairie View Trailer Park off W 2900 Road in Ocheleta around 9 a.m. on Tuesday. Multiple calls were fielded due to a male and female laying in the front yard.

The two were in a dating relationship. Thomas appeared in court on Wednesday, August 29 facing three charges from an alleged domestic abuse incident. Mayes did have an active restraining order against Thomas.
