Tulsa Man Threatens To Kill Wife, Burn Down House

A Tulsa man is behind bars after deputies say he threatened to kill his wife and burn their house down.

Patrick Starkey is in jail facing assault with a deadly weapon and arson charges.

Deputies say he threatened his wife with a shotgun, a kitchen knife and then shot her in the leg with a BB-gun.

They say he also poured gasoline all over the home and struck a lighter to burn the house down.

The victim eventually called 911 and Starkey was arrested without any trouble.

He will appear in court Monday.
