TAFT, Oklahoma (CNN) — One person is dead and seven are wounded, including two juveniles, after a shooting early Sunday at an outdoor Memorial Day festival in Taft, Oklahoma, officials said. The shooting took place shortly after midnight when festival goers got into an argument and gunfire followed, according to the state’s Bureau of Investigations (OSBI). Law enforcement was present at the festival and provided initial aid to the victims, according to an OSBI statement. Some 1,500 people were in attendance at the annual Memorial Day event in Taft, southeast of Tulsa. A “sound disturbance” Sunday at an indoor arena in Brooklyn, New York, sent people running for their lives who mistook the sound for gunfire, including tennis star Naomi Osaka.
