Following the Game 5 between the OKC Thunder and the LA Lakers shots were fired outside of Chesapeake Energy Arena. A total of 8 people were shot in the incident and the police have arrested two suspects. The incident occurred when some fights broke out within the celebrating fans in the Bricktown district, a popular nightlife area in OKC. One of the people shot are in critical condition and the rest walked away with minor wounds.
Incidents like this one occur way too often after sports games specifically elimination playoff games. This is a result of people generally acting stupidly and when you have the combination of stupid people and guns in the same place nothing good can happen. People have to be able to control themselves better than they have or the police and organizations like the NBA will take action in preventing this in the future.
