TPD: Resident shoots, kills two men during home invasion

Police are investigating a double shooting during a home invasion.

We're told the door had been kicked in at the Suzanne Apartments near 11th and Mingo about 12:35 a.m. Thursday.

"We did find two males that were deceased apparently shot inside the apartment," Tulsa Police Sergeant Gillian Phippen said.

KRMG has now learned the names of the two men are Kejuan Shields and Demario Harris. Another man, Tymalk Love, jumped out of the window and ran away.

Police believe Shields, Harris and Love got into an argument outside of the apartment. The resident and a friend went inside the apartment and locked the door.

Investigators believe shortly after that, Shields, Harris and Love broke into the apartment and assaulted the resident’s friend.

The resident, who is in a wheelchair, grabbed his pistol as his friend was being assaulted and shot Shields and Harris, according to police.

The wheelchair bound resident and his friend were interviewed and released.  The investigation is ongoing.
