A 26 year old father is found shot to death on a roadway in Oklahoma City In the early morning hours of November 14, 2017, the life of 26-year-old Ryan Wayne Goss, a Caucasian male, was tragically cut short in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. A passerby on their way to work discovered his body in a residential roadway near Southwest 82nd Street and May Avenue. Police were called to the scene and quickly determined that he was the victim of a homicide, having sustained gunshot wounds.
One neighbor reported hearing four gunshots in the area around the time of the incident.
Ryan was a father to three daughters, one of whom he never had the chance to meet. Described by his family as an outgoing and loving father, he worked as a galvanizer and held aspirations of joining the Air Force. Those who knew him remembered him as fiercely loyal and someone who was always there for the people he loved, even extending his kindness to strangers. He enjoyed spending time with his young daughters at the park and was remembered by his mother as an uninhibited person who loved to sing.
Despite the passage of time, the murder of Ryan Wayne Goss remains unsolved, and the case is now considered cold. Law enforcement officials have stated their belief that the person responsible was likely someone Ryan knew and was comfortable with, as there was no evidence of a struggle or commotion leading up to the shooting. To date, no suspects have been publicly identified or arrested in connection with his death. His family continues to hold memorials and seek answers, hoping that new information will lead to justice for Ryan. The Oklahoma City Police Department continues to ask for anyone with information to come forward.
