Tulsa, Okla. —

A homeowner opens fire after he finds three men trying to break into his barn early Sunday morning.

Tulsa police say it happened around 2:35 a.m., near 17th and Memorial.

The homeowner heard a noise and went outside to investigate. Police say the suspects were attempting to break inside the barn when they were discovered.

Before the suspects could get inside, police say the homeowner fired four shots. It's not known whether he was firing at the suspects or if he was just trying to scare them.

None of the three suspects were hit.

Police say they took off on foot toward a nearby church and weren't seen again.

Nothing was taken and officers don't believe the suspects had weapons.

Meth users probably. Looking for saddles, or power tools.

The experience won’t scare them much. They probably will be back within thirty days.

If I did that here in Pennsylvania — I would need an attorney and would be charged...

I so need to move.
