Police work three separate kidnapping cases

BROKEN ARROW, Okla. — Police in Broken Arrow have used a lot of manpower on kidnapping cases within the last few weeks.

“We have dealt with three separate domestic kidnapping situations within the past month,” said Officer James Koch.

The cases involve a current or former boyfriend.

Police say the suspect, 35-year-old Travis Eugene Stevens, broke into his ex-girlfriend’s home and took her.

The latest case happened Tuesday around 6:00am at an apartment near Albany and County Line Rd.

“She had some very minor injuries that were consistent with the initial struggle,” said Officer Koch.

Investigators say the victim called a relative to say she was safe, but the relative thought she may have made the call under duress.

Police tracked the victim and the suspect down in a stolen truck near I-244 and North 129th East Avenue in Tulsa.
