ELK CITY, Okla. -
The Elk City Police Department is investigating a deadly home invasion. Police said the victim told investigators two men broke into his bedroom.
That's when investigators said the homeowner then opened fire on both, killing one of the would-be thieves.
“I saw five or six police cars, they had all alleys blocked off,” said Tristian Wooten, Elk City resident. “Cones had the area shut off.”
People living nearby said they woke up and noticed police all over their neighborhood Saturday morning.
“They blocked off all in front of the tennis courts there to the south and all the way at the north end of the block,” said Terry Jordan. “You couldn’t really tell what house everything happened at.”
Right now, Elk City Police said Samuel Castro and Isaiah Johnson got into a home near Watkins and C Street.
The man living inside said one of them pulled a gun and there was a struggle. Both were shot, with Castro dying in the man's bedroom. Police said Johnson ran off and ended up at the hospital.
The situation has some in Elk City concerned.
“Home invasion is kind of a whole different level,” said Jordan. “It really steps up and it’s something you think about as a homeowner and your families here trying to keep them safe.”

And now we will have to pay for the upkeep of one intruder for the rest of his life - unless he is privileged and a judge says he was trying to turn his life around, teaching Sunday school, etc.
However, good shooting, homeowner!
I consider that only batting .500. Good, to be sure but... Removing both vermin permanently would have been better.
Hopefully one of Soros’ DAs isn’t in charge of handling the case.
An A-Plus performance, no doubt about it.
Not in rural western Oklahoma, at least not right now.
He won’t have a gun if the Dems win Georgia (due to packing the courts, and thereby eliminating the Second Amendment).
Or if he still has a gun, he’ll be looking at federal felony charges for possession.
In Oklahoma? Not very likely.
Good shoot on the part of the homeowner.
One in Missouri (St. Louis City Attorney Kim Gardner) just won re-election.
Way out here in Oklahoma we,...”Shoot..Shovel..and Shut up”.
