A woman has died after she was shot inside of a Papa John's pizza restaurant where she worked in Tulsa, OK and the suspect has been found dead, Fox 23 reported on Monday.
Griselda Gallardo, 20, was pronounced dead at the scene on Monday inside the restaurant at roughly 2 p.m. The body of the alleged shooter, Joshua Silkey, 24, was discovered in a wooded area behind Grace Church in Tulsa with a self-inflicted gunshot wound, according to Tulsa World.
No other injuries were reported at the Papa John's.
Gallardo's friends said on Facebook that she was previously dating Silkey, and that he, who was previously employed at the same restaurant, may have become enraged when Gallardo ended the relationship.
Silkey's tan 2008 Ford Escape was found by police in a parking lot behind Grace Church. Officers said they think Silkey ran into the woods west of the church before he took his life.
On Facebook, friends expressed their shock and grief over the death of Gallardo, who many called "shorty."
"Such a beautiful soul was murdered yesterday. My friend Shorty was killed by our old boss and her ex, all because of his obsession with her. It's so sick and twisted. She was extremely kind to everyone and always talked of her future and goals ... She deserved her life and that creep took it away with a damn bullet. I and so many others will miss you Shorty," Mallissa Cruse said.
Stephanie Barbosa also had similar words about Gallardo: "You were the most sweetest, most caring person I knew and I'm in complete shock to hear that you're gone. We tend to not realize how amazing people are until we don't have them anymore. I know you will go right straight to heaven and I just wish I could have seen you and have gotten one of your warm last hugs. I love you."
