Oklahoma Shooting: Woman Shot Multiple Times After Removing Nazi Flag From Home On A Dare

A 26-year-old Oklahoma woman was shot multiple times after trying to take a Nazi flag from a residence on a dare.

Garfield County Sheriff’s deputies were called to the scene at around 3 a.m. on Sunday and found the woman lying in a nearby ditch. She was reportedly shot between three and five times and was later transported to a hospital.

“The female had multiple gunshot wounds, so my deputies rendered aid to her,” Sheriff Jody Helm explained in a statement.

The woman, Kyndal McVey, was identified by KWTV 9 News, a CBS affiliate in Oklahoma City. Calls from International Business Times to the Garfield County Sheriff's office about the woman's condition and additional specifics about the shooting have not been returned.

McVey had been attending a party in the small town of Hunter, Oklahoma, where she was dared to steal one of the two Nazi flags displayed at the home of Alexander John Feaster, 44, across the street. Having agreed to it, she ran over and attempted to run back to the party with a flag.

At this point, according to Helm, one of the other party guests shouted about a gun. Hearing this, McVey dropped the flag in Feaster’s driveway before he shot her multiple times with a rifle.

Feaster was reportedly arrested with little incident or resistance, but he did request a lawyer almost immediately. After obtaining a search warrant for his home, officers found the 5.56mm rifle used in the shooting, 14 other guns, and ammunition.

Feaster faces charges of shooting with the intent to kill, as well as assault and battery with a deadly weapon. The district attorney will be left to decide what charges or penalties, if any, McVey will face.

Neighbors explained that Feaster first put up the flags a year ago. Despite the provocative flags, this shooting was said to be the first incidence of violence from Feaster, who neighbors said largely kept to himself. He also reportedly wore a black outfit with a red swastika armband on a few occasions.

“I feel like these flags are a disaster waiting to happen,” one neighbor said about Feaster’s residence.

“It’s never really been a problem,” another neighbor explained. “His flags got stolen a couple times when he first put them out but nothing ever came of it. This is the first time it’s ever come to violence. He’s been out mowing neighbors yards and just smiling and waving at everyone.”

Hunter, Oklahoma, has a population of 166 and is located midway between Wichita, Kansas, and Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
