Jimmy Wayne Birchfield

Deadly force

Enid Police Officers responded to a 911 call from a woman stating that her son, who resided with her, was threatening to kill her and her dogs. When they arrived, the officers were confronted by Birchfield, in his wheelchair, with a shotgun. An officer fired at Birchfield hitting him in the chest; he died later at a local hospital. Officer Jacob McKinley was cleared of any charges by District Attorney Mike Fields in April 2013.
