BROKEN ARROW, Okla. (AP) - An armed carjacking suspect is in a standoff with police near a suburban Tulsa golf course.
Police say the standoff began Thursday afternoon after a man ran into a building near the Forest Ridge Golf Club in Broken Arrow following an attempted carjacking in Wagoner County with two other suspects. The suspects ran in separate directions as police arrived and two remained at large.
Broken Arrow Police Sgt. Thomas Cooper told reporters that one suspect ran into the building near the course and barricaded himself inside.
Police said two women were inside the building at the time, but escaped safely.
A man who answered the phone at the club said police told employees to stay inside and shut the doors, and authorities have told people to avoid the area.
