Tulsa police shoot armed suspect during foot chase

Just one day after two Tulsa Police Officers were shot, two other TPD officers say a gun was pulled on them during a foot chase.

It happened near Pine and Sheridan Tuesday afternoon

“That suspect turned around with a firearm in his hand and pointed it at the officers.  The officers then shot at the suspect, striking him one time with a non life-threatening injury. He has been transported to a hospital,” said Tulsa Police Capt. Richard Muelenberg.

It's not clear if the suspect got off any shots of his own, but the officers were not hurt.

The incident started as a car chase, but police used 'stop sticks' to disable the suspect's car.

That's when he got out and ran.
