Burglar kicks in door during escape attempt

It was like a scene out of an action film.

Officers arrived to a home near 41st and Yale Friday morning, and found a burglar fleeing the scene.

Police say Kendall Murphy then ran to a nearby home and tried to kick in a door.  When that didn't work, he ran to a third home, kicked in the back door, and exited the house through the front door.

The chase came to an end when K9-officers got involved.

Police say a K9 chased Murphy down, allowing officers to take him into custody.

When officers searched the suspect, they found stolen jewelry in his pocket.

Murphy was taken to a local hospital to be treated for dog bites and then escorted to the Tulsa County Jail.
