Oklahoma City, OK – Two separate deaths in Oklahoma City this week have been ruled as homicides by the state medical examiner, according to the Oklahoma City Police Department. As of now, no arrests have been made in either case.
The most recent investigation began when the police were called to the City Inn motel on Southwest 44th Street near Robinson Avenue. An employee at the motel had tragically discovered a deceased person in one of the rooms, leading to a homicide investigation.
Meanwhile, on the opposite side of the city, the police are seeking answers in the death of 38-year-old Ira Spells. Initially, it was thought that Spells had been hit by a car and died, but the medical examiner found evidence of something more sinister.
The police have not identified any suspects in either case and are appealing to the public for information. They urge anyone with information to contact the homicide tip line at (405) 297-1200.
The employee who found the deceased person at City Inn mentioned that the motel was usually a safe place for employees, visitors, and long-time residents. However, these incidents have left them feeling uneasy. Both cases are still under active investigation, and the police are hopeful that witnesses will come forward to assist in solving these homicides.
The deaths at City Inn and in the area of Northwest 10th Street and MacArthur Boulevard are both being treated as homicides, and the police are working diligently to find those responsible.
