McAlester Police: Man Arrested After Deadly Shooting

McAlester Police said officers were called to house on the 500 block of West Taylor just before 11:30 p.m. Wednesday where a man said he had shot his wife.

Officers said they found a woman shot to death inside the house. Police identified the victim at 37-year-old Catrina Pope. Officers arrested 39-year-old Jonathan Tubbs. Detectives said they don’t have a motive at this time and are still investigating.

Tubbs is now in the Pittsburg County Jail. Anyone with information concerning the incident is asked to call the McAlester Police Department Criminal Investigation Division at 918-421-4917. The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation is assisting with the investigation.
