The Edmond Police Department announced Wednesday the arrests of three additional suspects in the Arcadia Lake shooting, raising the total number to nine since the May 3 event. Investigators said they believe even more people will ultimately be charged.
Oklahoma County District Attorney Vicki Behenna charged Makhi Magness, 19, with shooting with intent to kill, gang-related offenses and possession of a firearm during the commission of a violent felony. Hezekiah Ricks and Omarion Gabriel, both 20, were each charged with accessory to first-degree murder.
Magness, a known 107 Hoover gang member, was identified by a victim who sustained a gunshot wound while attempting to drive away from the scene, according a probable cause affidavit written by EPD Detective Dakota Murley. The victim’s vehicle sustained multiple gunshots and appeared to have been targeted. Magness was seen on body camera footage of multiple EPD officers who responded to the scene, the affidavit states. Magness was standing with another 107 Hoover gang member at the scene who was shot in the back, Mulrey wrote.

Social media messages obtained by investigators through a search warrant indicated Magness’ possession of firearms and plans to attend the party at Arcadia Lake.
“Magness intended to travel to Arcadia Lake on May 3, 2026, while armed with a firearm, for the purpose of participating in a shooting,” the affidavit states.
Instagram messages sent after the shooting said Magness “was one of the shooters and that he didn’t have any shots left,” the affidavit states. A separate message references Magness shooting the vehicle of a victim.
Investigators viewed Magness’ reply to an article about the shooting sent in a group chat.
“An I empty the whole 25,” Magness replied, allegedly referring to the capacity of his firearm’s magazine. (However, a witness told police they witnessed Magness at the party carrying “a glock with a drum magazine.” Drum magazines generally hold 50 or more bullets.)
Ricks and Gabriel were both charged with accessory to murder for their actions following the shooting. Both were in Breonn Morton’s vehicle the day after the shooting when an Oklahoma City police officer conducted a traffic stop. Morton was also charged with accessory to first-degree murder June 5 for his alleged role in disposing of firearms.
Though Ricks and Gabriel denied involvement in the shooting when asked by OKCPD officers, a warrant for social media messages later revealed the suspects’ allegedly hiding Daviion Wyckoff’s “drac” or Draco firearm. Wyckoff faces six felony counts, including first-degree murder, for his involvement in the shooting.
A message from Ricks to Gabriel cited in the affidavit stated, “I’m glad we moved the drac.” The two then discussed police raids at Morton’s home.
Investigators are still looking for more suspects, an EPD press release said.
