One of Tulsa shooting suspects posted racist remark Updated at 3:20 p.m. ET: TULSA, Okla. -- After a two-day manhunt, police arrested two men early Sunday in connection with a Good Friday shooting spree in Tulsa's predominantly black north side that left three people dead and two others wounded. Jake England, 19, and Alvin Watts, 32, were held on three counts of first-degree murder and two counts of shooting with intent to kill, the Tulsa Police Department said. Police identified both suspects as white males, although earlier court records identified a Jacob Carl England, born on the same date, as American Indian. Police are examining whether the shootings might be a hate crime, as England, 19, had posted racially charged comments on his Facebook page about the two-year anniversary of his father's death, the Tulsa World reported. England wrote: "Today is two years that my dad has been gone shot by a f------ n----- it's hard not to go off between that and sheran I'm gone in the head." Watts commented beneath his post: "I kno i miss them 2. My last meomeries were great ones of them. Its nt goodbye its c u later. On his Facebook page, Watts describes himself as single, interested in women and a "very proud daddy." Court records show that he was charged in 2009 for aggravated assault and battery, but those charges were dismissed nearly three years later. In 2006, he pled guilty to domestic violence, a misdemeanor offense, and paid a $649.90 court fine. Sheran Hart Wilde was England's fiancé who died in January at the age of 24. His father, Carl England, 47, was shot and killed during an argument at an apartment complex two years ago; his death led to charges against a 38-year-old black man, KJRH.com reported. The man, Pernell Jefferson, was charged with pointing a gun and is scheduled to be released in 2014, according to the Oklahoma Department of Corrections. Tulsa police spokesman Jason Willingham told The Associated Press the two men were taken into custody just north of the city at 1:47 a.m. He said a tip to Crime Stoppers prompted the arrests, adding that a helicopter was used to help locate the two suspects. An appeal for information by police in Tulsa, Okla., helped bring about the arrest of two "knuckleheads" for the shooting deaths of three people during what appears to be a random spree, the city's mayor told TODAY's Lester Holt Sunday. The shootings happened around 1 a.m. Friday within a three-miles of each other. Police have said they don't believe victims knew each other. More than two dozen officers were called in to investigate the case, along with the FBI, the U.S. Marshals Service and other agencies. Tipsters told police to look for a white man driving a white Chevrolet pickup with a loud exhaust, which had been spotted near three of the shootings. Tulsa City Councilman Jack Henderson told Reuters that witnesses saw one of the shooters drive through the neighborhood and stop pedestrians for directions. As they walked away, he shot at them, killing one. Other tipsters contacted Crime Stoppers to inform police that England had the truck, and that he planned to burn it. Deputies found a burned truck around 6 p.m. on Saturday and traced it to Carl or Jacob England. The dead were identified as Dannaer Fields, 49, Bobby Clark, 54, and William Allen, 31, according to Reuters. The two wounded men, who were not identified, were expected to survive. However, KRMG TV reported Saturday that the FBI had announced that the shootings would be investigated under federal hate crime legislation.
