Man Shot, Killed After Breaking Into Ex-Girlfriend's Home [View all]

MIDWEST CITY, Oklahoma - A man was shot and killed after police said he broke into the home of his ex-girlfriend and attacked her early Thursday morning in Midwest City.

According to police, just before 1 a.m., officers responded to the incident at a home in the 9600 block of Willow Wind Drive. When they arrived, they found a man in his 20s dead inside the home.

Police later confirmed with News 9 that the man, who was armed with a gun, broke into his ex-girlfriend's home through a bathroom window and attacked her. The 18-year-old woman then grabbed a gun and shot the man once before running to a neighbor’s house to call 911, police said.
