ENID, Okla. — Two people, including the suspected gunman, were killed late Sunday night in a shooting at Integris Health Enid Hospital, according to the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI).

OSBI public information manager Hunter McKee stated that the incident began shortly before 11 p.m. on Sunday, August 17, 2025, when officers with the Enid Police Department were dispatched to a report of a possible domestic dispute at a residence near the hospital.

During the response, officers identified an adult male suspect connected to the call and located his vehicle in the parking lot of Integris Health Enid.

As officers attempted to make contact, the suspect opened fire on them before entering the hospital.

Once inside, the suspect fired multiple rounds, striking James Bode, a hospital security guard, who sustained critical injuries and later died.

Officials emphasized that the threat has been contained and there is no danger to the public.
