Neighbor Kills Oklahoma Man Trying to Drown Twin Babies

A neighbor shot and killed an Oklahoma man who was trying to drown his 3-month-old twins in a bathtub, police said Sunday.

The babies were "doing great" Sunday after having been released from the hospital, police in Ada told NBC News.

Bratcher said Foster, who lives in Poteau, about 130 miles east of Ada, showed up at a home where his estranged wife, identified as Michelle Forrells, was staying with their twins.

When Foster pulled Forrells and their children into a bathroom and started trying to drown the children — while holding Forrells at knifepoint — a 12-year-old girl also living in the house ran for help, Bratcher said.

Freeman, a neighbor, grabbed his revolver, entered the home, saw Foster trying to kill the children and shot him twice in the back, Bratcher said
