Standoff Ends, Police Launch Homicide Investigation
One man is in custody and police find a body inside a home after an overnight standoff in SE Oklahoma City.
Police arrested Gerald Hume this morning.
Hume
lives with his 77-year-old mother and police had been called out to
their home near the intersection of Bryant Ave and Sunnyslope Drive
several times to do health and welfare checks.
Hume's relatives called police after not hearing from his mother for several days.
Police stopped at Hume's home on November 9,
and continued to stop at the home several times. Hume told police each
time his mother was okay or not there and to leave the property.
After several visits, police got enough evidence to get a search warrant.
Police executed the search warrant around 4 p.m. on Tuesday.
Hume
did not allow police inside his home and a standoff ensued. Hume
pointed a firearm at officers several times according to investigators.
Around 3:45 a.m. Wednesday, Oklahoma City Police forced entry into the home and used non-lethal force by shooting Hume with beanbag guns.
He was taken into custody and police found the body of an unidentified woman inside.
Police are not giving any clues to who the deceased woman is, how or when she died.
Hume will be facing first degree murder charges.

Obama says nation must do more for fallen heroes
May 25, 2013 10:08 GMT
By DARLENE SUPERVILLE Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama says the nation must do more than just remember its fallen heroes on Memorial Day.
In his weekly radio and Internet address, Obama says the country must care for the loved ones the fallen leave behind. He says the country must also make sure that all veterans receive the care and benefits they have earned.
Obama says that, above all, the armed forces must have the support needed to carry out their missions at home and abroad.
In the Republican address, Oklahoma Sen. James Inhofe thanks the nation for its prayers and support following Monday's deadly tornado in his home state. He recalls past natural and man-made disasters in Oklahoma and says that while the state was hard hit, "we're not knocked out."
