Vincent Peter Valentin

How they died

Suicide

Vincent Peter Valentin died of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound after he fired shots at a University of Oklahoma fraternity house after apparently destroying shrubbery outside a store with a hatchet. When he was confronted by several members of the fraternity, Valentin pointed the gun at them and attempted to fire a shot, police said. He then threw the hatchet at them, but no one was injured in either incident. Valentin then fled the scene on foot and was later located dead of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound at a residence just west of the fraternity.
