At least two other victims were injured in the apparently random shootings Friday that took place in a predominantly African American section of Tulsa.
Officials have said they are investigating whether the incidents were a hate crime, since both of the suspects are white and the victims black.
A task force taking part in the manhunt following the shooting included officials from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the US Marshals Service.
