Oklahoma County Sheriff's spokesman Mark Myers says the resident told deputies he spotted a man breaking into a large shed on his property and confronted him about 2:30 p.m. Thursday. When the suspect got into his car and tried to flee, the homeowner says he stepped in front of the vehicle to prevent the man from leaving. The homeowner says he fired one shot from a shotgun as the suspected burglar lunged toward him in his car. Myers says the man died at the scene.
