A 22-year-old man is facing multiple felony charges after Tulsa police say he brutally attacked his own father, stole his vehicle, and was later arrested in Broken Arrow.
According to investigators, officers responded Sunday to a report of a fight at a hotel near 45th and Garnett. When they arrived, they found the victim suffering from significant facial injuries.
The victim told officers his son, Cody Lieb, attacked him without warning, knocking him to the ground and repeatedly punching him in the face. Police say Lieb then took his father’s car keys and drove away in the vehicle.
As officers searched for Lieb, they received information suggesting he might head to the home of an ex-girlfriend who has a protective order against him.
Before Tulsa officers arrived, Broken Arrow police were called to the residence after a vehicle crashed through a backyard fence. Investigators say Lieb was driving the stolen car at the time.
Broken Arrow police arrested Lieb for violating the protective order. Tulsa police later sought additional charges, including domestic assault and battery, first-degree robbery, and larceny of an automobile.
The victim declined medical treatment at the scene. Lieb was booked into the Tulsa County Jail.
