OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - Oklahoma City police say a man leading officers on a car chase on Interstate 35 shot and killed himself.
Police told reporters that the chase began about 3
a.m. Friday when officers arrived at a home in northwest Oklahoma City
to investigate a reported shooting. Police say the man led officers on
the chase southbound along I-35 before shooting himself near the
I-35/I-40 interchange. Police say the man had confronted his wife and
another man at the home and shot and critically wounded the other man
before police arrived.
No names have been released.
The southbound I-35 ramp onto Interstate 40 and the
eastbound I-40 ramp onto southbound I-35 were closed for several hours
before reopening about 7:30 a.m.
