Micah Turner
Age 20
20-year-old Micah Turner told investigators Monday night, that he shot his mother’s ex-boyfriend because he was threatening his mom. He stated that the ex-boyfriend had been living in the garage and despite their efforts would not leave. A neighbor tells us the mother had posted about trying to get him to leave on their HOA page.
According to the arrest report, Micah told investigators the ex-boyfriend has stolen all of their guns except the one Turner used to shoot him with. He stated that the ex-boyfriend has been very violent lately.
Police reports show Turner told investigators he was afraid the ex-boyfriend was going to get more violent. The affidavit says Turner shot the ex-boyfriend so he “couldn’t hurt my mother or my brother.”
Turner was trying to give the man CPR to the ex-boyfriend when the police arrived. He later told officers he had not planned on firing the gun but hoped it would scare the ex-boyfriend so he would back off.
The victim was taken to a Tulsa hospital where he was pronounced dead. Turner was arrested on first-degree murder, and transported to the Rogers County Jail.
The Owasso Police Investigation is ongoing.
