Woman arrested after officer-involved shooting in NW OKC
OKLAHOMA CITY (KFOR) - The suspect in an officer-involved shooting Sunday afternoon has been identified.
According to Oklahoma City Police, officers responded to the 3000 block of NW 61st St. around 4:20 p.m. on May 5 regarding a domestic situation after a woman shot a man. Upon arrival, police found the male victim in the front of the house and moved him to a safe area to receive medical attention.
Officers then called for the female suspect, identified as 61-year-old Lisa Daniels, to come outside. She announced to police that she had a gun and officers got into position to cover the outside of the house.
Police say Daniels exited the residence with a sweater over her hand while making motions like she had a gun in her hand. She began to walk closer to officers with her hand raised which prompted an officer to fire his gun.
Daniels was not hit and officers determined she did not have a gun in her hand. They were able to tase her and take her into custody.
Daniels has been booked into the Oklahoma County Detention Center for domestic assault and battery with a dangerous weapon.
The gunshot victim was taken to a nearby hospital and is expected to survive. No other injuries have been reported.
The officer involved has been placed on routine administrative leave as the investigation continues.
