The Oxford Police Department arrested Bobby Parks, 22, in connection with the shooting at Buffalo Wild Wings on Sunday.
The shooting was reported at Buffalo Wild Wings on Sunday around 2 p.m. No one was injured, and OPD apprehended the suspect.
Parks, from Sarah, Mississippi, was reportedly involved in an altercation the night before at Buffalo Wild Wings, where he was an employee. On Sunday, he was outside Buffalo Wild Wings when he mistook a patron on the patio for the other employee involved in the altercation.
Parks was then picked up by an unknown person in a silver BMW and proceeded to fire approximately six shots toward the patron and Buffalo Wild Wings, according to a press release from OPD. The weapon was recovered by OPD as well.
OPD officers found Parks shortly after the shooting, and he was taken into custody without incident. Parks was arrested and transported to the Lafayette County Detention Center, where he was booked for shooting into a dwelling. A justice court judge set Parks’ bond at $200,000.
Parks is a former student at the University of Mississippi, according to his Facebook page.
The investigation is still open, and more arrests could be made, according to OPD. OPD is encouraging anyone with information about the case to contact CrimeStoppers.
