Never bring a baseball bat to a gunfight.
Looks like a completely justifiable use of deadly force.
Charges unlikely in fatal Sallisaw shooting
Associated Press - June 9, 2007 8:35 PM ET
MUSKOGEE, Okla. (AP) - Authorities say charges likely won't be filed against a Sallisaw woman who shot and killed her ex-husband after he broke into her home and attacked her and another person with a baseball bat.
Authorities say 49-year-old Robert Andrew Wolfe broke into Kimberly Davis' home just after 1 am yesterday. Wolfe began beating Davis with the bat, but Davis' daughter and boyfriend intervened, allowing Davis to locate a gun.
Sallisaw Police Chief Shaloa Edwards says Davis filed for a divorce from Wolfe last July, and the divorce was granted May 16th.
In the interim, Davis and Wolfe were involved in five protective order court hearings.
Davis and her daughter's boyfriend, Timothy Sizemore, were injured during the attack. Edwards says Sizemore suffered a shattered elbow, a broken hand and a head injury.
An investigative division director for the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation says that because the shooting appears to have been in self-defense, it is unlikely that charges will be filed against Davis.
