30-year-old who stabbed his father and killed his grandmother is tased, arrested in Wagoner County
A Redbird man was arrested Tuesday after deputies say he stabbed his father and fatally stabbed his grandmother.
Deputies responded to a home in the 19400 block of South 345th East Avenue in the Redbird area after a report of a stabbing.
When deputies arrived at the home, they found a woman and a man stabbed. The woman was pronounced dead at the scene and the man was taken to a Tulsa hospital in critical condition, deputies said.
The suspect, who was identified as Nicholas Scarborough, left the home, but deputies said they eventually found Scarborough nearby.
“Deputy King and Deputy Gray gave the suspect commands to get on the ground, but the suspect turned and charged towards the deputies,” the Wagoner County Sheriff’s Office said in a press release. “The suspect fought both deputies until a taser was utilized to bring the suspect into custody without injury to the suspect or deputies.”
According to jail records, Scarborogh is facing charges of first-degree murder, assault and battery on a police officer, assault and battery with a deadly weapon and resisting an executive officer.
He is being held without bond.
