UPDATE -- Two Jenks elementary schools were taken off of lockdown around 5:30pm Friday after police set up a perimeter to search for a suspect near 93rd & Sheridan in South Tulsa.  The schools were locked down merely as a precaution.

Authorities were trying to serve 21-year-old Zachary Labadie with warrants when he tried to run over the police officers.  An officer then shot at the car several times, and Labadie took off running.

Suspect Zachary Labadie faces one count of assault with a deadly weapon in addition to his outstanding warrants. TPD homicide says Labadie turned himself in around 630pm and was then taken to hospital where he was treated and released for minor, non-life threatening injuries. TPD confirms the officer did shoot Labadie in the upper right shoulder. Once released from the hospital detectives took him into questioning and arrested him.

The passenger in the car was questioned and released and does not face charges.
The TPD officer who fired the shots is not on normal paid admininistrative leave because the suspect was treated and released from the hospital with non-life threatening injuries and his now going to jail.

Touche Unwashed Mass. Them inbred (Fill in every cuss word available) Almost got me 10 years for bumping into one accidentally. Luckily the judge saw through there B.S. and let me go. I know next time they take me in they won't be lying.

kindagreywolf - "He tried to run over two cops? KUDOS to him! I hope he gets off!" Its another "cop jumps in path of car and starts shooting when it moves" deal. Almost anything these days can be twisted into "assault on a Police Officer", even raising your hand to deflect a baton blow.

You have his mug shot and "he is of average size and height"? The police should have information such as tatoos, what he was wearing when last seen and which direction he was headed. What is this? not enough people working today.
