Oklahoma Self-Defense: Intruder fatally shot by Ada homeowner :: 02/18/2020

ADA, Okla. (KTEN) -- An man who was shot while trying to enter a home in Ada early Monday morning has died.

Police said Chace Winters tried getting into a residence in the 700 block of East 6th Street around 6:30 a.m. Witnesses said Winters drew a gun; that's when someone inside the home identified as Dakota Vick ordered him to leave.

"A few seconds later the door was kicked in, and one of the witnesses saw a gun stick inside the house and called out 'gun!'" Ada city spokeswoman Lisa Bratcher said.

Vick told police that's when he fired at Winters in self-defense. Winters was shot in the torso and expired at Mercy Hospital on Tuesday afternoon.

"The gun that was used in the shooting was later identified as stolen," Bratcher said.

It's still unclear why Winters was at the house. The case is under investigation by police.
