The ex-girlfriend was elsewhere and wasn’t hurt.

According to the Tulsa World, during the time the victims were being transported to the hospital, Simmons allegedly called 911 and said he shot three people.
Walker says police found no weapon in the car.
Simmons was arrested and faces charges including two counts of murder.
