This is not what it seems...
Initial article from NewsOK.com:
Updated article from KFOR.com:
An Edmond couple reported a "home invasion" at their Parklane Estates home Monday night.
Two "suspects" entered the home and duct-taped the female homeowner and put her in a bathroom. Her husband returns from walking their dogs and sees the "intruders" and grabs a 2 by 4 and whacks one while the other gets away. The one who got hit eventually gets away as well. Police came out and brought dogs to find the "suspects".
As Paul Harvey would say: And here's the rest of the story--
Today (9/28/04), Edmond police spokeswoman Glynda Chu (a non-asian woman with blazing red hair) stated that the "home invasion" was a hoax. The male homeowner, a teacher at Edmond North High School, allegedly recruited two students to pose as "intruders" so that he (the teacher) could come in, discover the "intruders" and "save" his "victimized" wife and be a hero. The couple's marriage apparently was in some sort of turmoil, and this guy thought that staging this would make him a hero in her eyes. He got ratted out by one of the students he had hired when the student told his parents of his involvement after hearing about the "break in". The student thought it was going to be a practical joke.
The words above are mine and this incident really did happen. It was reported on the local news today that the unnamed homeowner would be facing a ton of charges, the primary among them was filing a false police report, which is a misdemeanor. Additionally, he's in some big time trouble at North, too, over this incident. Was it worth possibly losing your job, pal?
Okay, this is the weird part:

Okay, this is the weird part:
- Parklane Estates is way too close to home.
- Two of my sons went to Edmond North High School
- And, if it's who I think it is, the teacher involved took a group of students to Europe last summer ('03), including my son, Jeff.
There'll be more tomorrow, I'm sure. Stay tuned...
