(KTUL) \u2014 It&#8217;s a quiet Owasso neighborhood, a place where children draw on the sidewalks and forgotten sports&#8217; balls litter front yards, but there&#8217;s something much darker also present &#8212; the remnants of a shooting.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The neighborhood hasn&#8217;t seen things like this,&#8221; said neighbor Beth Hixson. <\/p>\n<p>Hixson has lived on this block for 18 years. The most activity she&#8217;s seen is the occasional medical call. She&#8217;s still asking questions about what happened across the street.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;All of a sudden, we heard the sirens, more than one, and my husband came out to the front window,&#8221; said Hixson. &#8220;I called my other neighbors to see what was going on.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It was around 11:30 Monday night when the flashing lights and the caution tape went up. Owasso police say 30-year-old Zachary Sparkman, a so-called intruder to a home near North 129th East Avenue and 76th Street North, was shot and killed.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>1 \/ 0 \/ 0<br \/>\nRead the rest of the article here: <a href=\"https:\/\/ktul.com\/news\/local\/owasso-police-man-shoots-kills-intruder-following-attempted-burglary\">KTUL<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Good Samaritan holds suspect in fatal shooting of mother of four at gunpoint until police arrive<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>By: Wesley Goheen<br \/>\nAlpharetta, GA (CBS46) Police say a Good Samaritan was able to hold a suspect, accused of fatally shooting a woman, at gunpoint until officers arrived on the scene.<\/p>\n<p>The incident happened in the parking lot of a Wells Fargo Bank on Main Street in Alpharetta.<\/p>\n<p>The Alpharetta Department of Public Safety posted details of the incident to their departmental Facebook page.<\/p>\n<p>According to the post, the department received a 911 call about shots fired at the bank at around 11:40 a.m. <\/p>\n<p>When officers arrived on scene, they found 45 year-old Tynesha Evans suffering from gunshot wounds. <\/p>\n<p>The Facebook post says an armed witness who was driving by the bank and heard the shot, got out of his vehicle, confronted the suspect and held him at gunpoint until officers arrived.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>0 \/ 1 \/ 0<br \/>\nRead the rest of the article here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbs46.com\/news\/good-samaritan-holds-suspect-in-fatal-shooting-of-mother-of\/article_2f400dc8-4981-11e9-adf9-c38719957ea0.html\">CBS 46<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Today, Delta Whiskies and Whiskettes, we have 2 \/ 1 \/ 0, with two taking the dirt nap, one making new friends in the local lock-up, and none in the wind today.
