TULSA, Okla. — Authorities in Tulsa say a security guard at a gas station shot and wounded a man who was swinging an Australian musical instrument at him.
Tulsa police said the shooting happened late Saturday at a QuikTrip convenience store in Tulsa. They say the security guard said he opened fire after the man “swung a large wooden club at him” that was later determined to be a didgeridoo.
Police say that according to witnesses, the man may have also had a knife.
Police say the man was shot once in the groin area but is expected to recover. The security guard told investigators that the shooting was in self-defence. Police say surveillance video appears to back up that claim.
