New developments in a home invasion and shooting in Broken Arrow. Police say they are not sure why the suspect, Stephen Richardson, broke into the home Saturday night. The 19-year-old was reportedly shot three times by the homeowner. Major Carol Newell says police still have people they want to interview. "The suspect didn't have a vehicle over there so obviously he was dropped off by someone. We want to find out what he was doing prior to this incident to try and piece together a timeline and maybe determine what it was that led him to that residence," says Newell.

The homeowner told police he heard glass breaking and saw the intruder and shot. While some reports quote police as saying the 19-year-old was drunk and thought he was breaking into his own home-- Newell says police are still not sure. "We really don't have a real clear understanding of what he was doing in that particular home and that particular neighborhood. It is nowhere near his residence so that couldn't be it," explains Newell.  She adds the investigation is active and the suspect is still hospitalized.

    In Response to watchers comment: Let's set the mood..you are watching tv your family is upstairs, all hell breaks out in your bedroom. you mute the tv yell to the wife to call 911 you announce (loud enough that the dispatcher on the phone hears you clearly from 3 rooms away) not once not twice but 3 times that you have a gun. a 6'+ man steps out of your bedroom just a couple of steps away from you and your family. What question do you want asked? BAwatcher? Do you take the time to conversate? field sobriety test? No wait you pat poor burglar on the head and say poor boy he has had it rough. He needs Jesus that's what he needs. Stop making excuses for poor burglar he is more than capable of making up his own. He's proven that. SR if this is you, you should be talking to Jesus about the life he saved you for.
  • Do not shoot
    If you shoot first and ask questions later, you have no business owning a gun! Especially when you’re wide awake and new something was wrong with the guy before you shot with all lights on!!!
  • BA Home Invasion
    Where in BA was this?
  • Bunglars
    Remember criminals, more of us homeowners have guns than ever before, and like the Tulsa and Broken Arrow police departments, we've learned to shoot first and ask questions later. P.S. If you're drunk and innocent, still expect to get shot when you come through a strangers window in the wee hours. :)
