Tulsa, OK – 3rd victim in shooting at Tulsa hotel dies

TULSA, Okla. (AP) A third victim of a Tulsa hotel shooting last week has died.

Police confirmed that 20-year-old Toni Ruff died at a Tulsa hospital over the weekend. He was shot last Thursday night at a Days Inn hotel in east-central Tulsa. The others fatally shot were 23-year-old Joey Deon Mike and 19-year-old Jermiko Thomas.

No arrests had been made as of Monday night.

Officers called to the hotel the night of the shooting found Ruff and the other victims in one of the rooms. Police say a bullet had struck a water pipe and flooded the room.
