An Edmond teenager who was shot last week told police it was because he complained about a faulty CD player installation in his car.

According to the Oklahoma City Police report, James Trinton, 18, went to “two guys” he knew and asked them to install a CD player and speakers in his car. But the day after the job was finished, the wiring caught fire and he had to call the fire department to put out the fire in his car.

Trinton told police he went back to the house in the 1200 block of NW 101 to complain. The two men began to curse at him, and one of them pulled out a handgun and started firing.

Trinton said about 10 shots were fired. Police found six or seven bullet holes in Trinton’s jacket when they interviewed him at the hospital, but only two hit his body — one in the bicep and one in the thigh.

Police have not made an arrest.
