Man Killed While Breaking Into Collinsville Home, Deputies Say

The Tulsa County Sheriff's Office says a man was stabbed to death while trying to break into a home in the Collinsville area Friday morning.

TCSO says it received a call from a woman who lives in the home that a man broke into the home and she stabbed him. The house is located near 136th Street North and Garnett.

Deputies say the homeowner called 911 right away to report she had stabbed a man who she says broke into her home. The sheriff's office says the woman called around 8 a.m., saying two men broke into her home.

Deputies say she grabbed a knife from her kitchen and stabbed one of the men, identified as 38-year-old Donnie Dewayne Peters. The two men made it out of the house, but Peters, the one who was stabbed, died in the woman's backyard.

Justin Steed lives around the corner.

"There's quite a bit of traffic for being in the country, but it's really quiet though, usually," he said.

Steed said he knows of several break-ins in his neighborhood.

"There's stuff that comes up missing all the time. I mean, it's crazy."

Deputies say the other man ran off and they want to find him.

"I haven't got a description released as of yet. When we get that, we will put it out. But we do want to talk to that person. If you're out there, give us a call. We want to talk to you, hear your side of the story so we can put this case to bed," said Deputy Justin Green, TCSO.

Deputies interviewed and released the woman.
