TULSA, Oklahoma -- A man living in an east Tulsa duplex fought off several intruders late Wednesday evening.

Tulsa Police believe the man could have been a victim of a home invasion in the 10100 block of East 30th Street at about 10:30 p.m.

According to initial reports the man had been shot in the head, but EMSA paramedics determined he was bleeding from several bad cuts on his head.
