Wounded man arrested by police....

Oklahoma City Police are saying the metro's 85th murder of the year was probably a drug deal that went bad on the city's northwest side.

It happened overnight near the intersection of NW 150th Street and May Avenue near an apartment complex.

Our broadcast partners at NewsChannel4 KFOR report that several people in the area heard numerous gunshots, with some even saying they saw three or four people running from the scene after the gunfire stopped.

Officers responding to the scene found two people shot.

They say 20-year-old Jonathan Charles Braggs of Edmond was shot and killed.  20-year-old Jonathan Daniels of Oklahoma City was wounded and transported to a local hospital.

Police say the shooting occurred during an illegal drug transaction and that Daniels is facing a felony murder and robbery charge.

They also say a third person was apparently involved in the incident, however an arrest warrant has not been issued for that person.  Police are also not releasing that person's name. 

Police are asking anyone with information on the shooting to contact the Oklahoma City Police Homicide Tip Line at 405.297.1200.
