A Tulsa police officer shot and killed a domestic violence suspect Friday night. It happened shortly before 9:30 p.m. in the 1000 block of North Florence Place.
Police told 2NEWS that when officers responded to a domestic disturbance, they could see that a woman had been abused. When an officer tried to arrest a man at the house, police say the suspect began struggling with the officer.
Police say the suspect then reached for the officer's gun. At that point, a second officer shot and killed the suspect.
Detectives are now interviewing the officers. Their names have not been released. The suspect has not been identified, either.
A compilation of daily news articles from around the United States about deaths (including both people and animals) that appear to occur in the context of a past or present intimate relationship, focusing on 2009-present. (NOTE: this blog is limited to incidents that appear in the media and are captured by our search terms. We recognize this is not an exhaustive portrayal of all deaths resulting from intimate violence.) When is society going to realize intimate violence makes victims of us all?
