A woman was arrested in Del City after police said she tried to run over a man during a domestic incident that sent officers rushing to a quiet neighborhood in the middle of the night. The man's foot was run over in the process, leaving him with minor injuries, while no other injuries were reported.
The police presence unfolded around 1:30 a.m. in a neighborhood near Southeast 44th Street and South Bryant Avenue, according to KOCO. Officers arrived to find the aftermath of a domestic dispute that had escalated to the point where the woman allegedly attempted to run the man over with her vehicle before he suffered the injury to his foot.
The woman was taken into custody following the incident, though details about her identity, the specific charges she faces, and which agency handled the arrest have not been made available.
What Remains Unknown
Investigators have not released what led up to the domestic incident, leaving the sequence of events that preceded the confrontation unclear. It is not yet known what relationship existed between the man and woman involved, nor what sparked the dispute that ended with officers descending on the residential block.
Cases involving vehicles used as weapons during domestic disputes are not unique to Del City. In Ponca City, Oklahoma, a woman separately faced multiple charges after she was accused of attempting to run over her former dating partner with her vehicle near a gas station, according to KFOR. That case remains a separate matter with no confirmed connection to the Del City incident.
Investigation Continues
For now, residents near Southeast 44th Street and South Bryant Avenue are left with more questions than answers about what unfolded in their neighborhood overnight. Authorities have given no timeline for when additional details, including formal charges, might be released.
