Oklahoma man shoots, kills neighbor who was trying to drown twin babies

ADA, Okla. - An Ada man was shot and killed by a neighbor Friday after he tried drowning twin babies.

“It’s awful because I’ve held the babies and, like, I’ve played with them and I just gave them clothes yesterday," said neighbor Summer Pierce.

Officials say Leland Foster was allegedly threatening the mother of the children with a knife during the ordeal.

A 12-year-old girl who was in the home ran to a neighbor's house for help.

The neighbor, Cash Freeman, rushed back over to the home to find Foster trying to drown the 3-month-old twins, a boy and a girl, in the bathtub.

He then shot Foster twice in the back with a gun.

It is not a happy ending obviously.
But the children were not murdered.
Too bad the neighbor didn't try to pull the man off of the children instead of killing him.
There had to be mental health issues here.

Obvious he had mental issues or in liberal speak he was just misunderstood? He was drowning BABIES for petes sake...Why 8:26 would this hero place his life in danger. The children were being kiled in front of him. He deserves a medal.

Hey 917 your comment won't age well. Tell you what. When those twins are 17 years old and can handle the truth of what almost happened to them, you look them up and tell them how the man who saved their life should've let them die because you don't believe in defending others at all cost. Let us know how that works out for ya. Okay?

9:17 must be a stupid liberal Democrat that doesn't believe in guns and probably in favor of murdering babies by abortion. So I guess you would just let him drown the twin babies. You are so ignorant.

This man is a hero in my book.

8:26, you are in the real grown up world now...get it. So pull the turd off so he can drown them later. Center mass is a term you should routinely practice to gain proficiency. This deceased subject will not be available to drown or harm anyone else. Now, do you see? It is a happy ending.I hope you are not my neighbor, if help is needed. I would not have a very confident feeling.

There is really no need to try and understand this guy's motives, all that matters are that those children are safe. It would be a tremendous waste of money to try to understand him and to provide help. I say that the shooting was righteous!

The man was convicted of arson and strangulation in another domestic dispute! He need to be taken off the planet..he was a menace to anyone living with him..sometimes people cannot be saved they are too violent and disturbed to give hugs to..the neighbor did the most humane thing. Saved the children and put this animal to bed.
