A man is in jail accused of shooting ten times at Tulsa police officers and when he was caught, he said that he did all of it to, “send a message.”
The News on 6 reports that Darius Padillow shot at officers on Sunday night after they told him to leave a gas station he’d been banned from near 61st and Peoria.
Padillow walked away and later fired shots at the officers.
Police say a witness identified Padillow as the shooter.
When police put Padillow in handcuffs on Tuesday they say he resisted and spit at an officer.
Police located the weapon, a 9 mm handgun, of the convicted weapon in a search warrant of his home.
