Tulsa Police officers received a call of shots fired near 76th and Kingston around 10:30 PM. They were also called by a man's parents who said he'd left the house with a gun.

Police spotted the man carrying a handgun, with part of it in his mouth as he walked around the neighborhood.

They tried to disarm him several times even using bean bag bullets to stun him. About an hour later, he shot himself.

The man later died at a Tulsa hospital.
