Oaks, Delaware, OK
E0575 and N4590

Two suspects were driving what police said was a stolen car and were spotted by an OHP trooper and a Delaware County sheriff's deputy. The officers pursued the suspects for about 2 miles before the suspects turned onto 575 Road, crashing the vehicle in a field, then fleeing on foot. One suspect fled and the other suspect broke into a mobile home, taking a hostage. About 50 officers with the Grand River Dam Authority Police, Delaware County Sheriff's Office, Colcord and Kansas police departments and OHP responded around 10 a.m. As the man held a disabled man at gunpoint, police charged the trailer and shot and killed the man.
