Broken Arrow Family Thanks Community For Support After House Fire During Standoff

The Broken Arrow family who lost their home in a standoff last week said the community has rallied around them.

In a statement released through Broken Arrow police, the Tomlinson family said, in part, “we are incredibly humbled and blessed by the outpouring of support we have received during this time.”

“We will never be able to adequately thank all of the people who have offered and provided assistance through their labor, materials, monetary donations, advice, and prayers,” they said.

Their home burned to the ground after police said Hiest Hart broke into the house and barricaded himself inside when confronted by the Tomlinson’s when they got home.
