Tulsa County District Attorney Steve Kunzweiler was stabbed multiple times by his own daughter, Jennifer Kunzweiler, in their family home. Jennifer has been arrested while detectives are still gathering evidence against her.
In a statement to The U.S. Sun, Steve Kunzweiler said: “Unfortunately today, I found myself in a situation that I hoped would never happen.
“Fortunately, my injuries are such that I was able to go home.
“Thank you to everyone who expressed concern for me and my family.”
Steve called the police himself after his daughter attacked him and struck him multiple times. The Tulsa Police Department has released a statement:
“We are currently working a stabbing scene in which Tulsa County DA Steve Kunzweiler is the victim,” Tulsa Police Department Chief Franklin said shortly after the stabbing.
“He is currently receiving medical attention at a local hospital for his wounds.”
Jennifer was also hurt during the attack. She supposedly stabbed herself as well as her father. They are both expected to make a full recovery.
Steve said after the attack: “I am most appreciative of the response from the Tulsa Fire Department, EMSA, the Tulsa Police Department and the Tulsa County Sheriff’s Office.
“I am also very grateful for the professionalism and care of the staff and doctors at Saint Francis Hospital in treating me for my injuries.”
His office initially released a statement, saying: “The entire Kunzweiler family would appreciate your prayers and concerns as they go through this struggle.
“They would also appreciate your concern for their privacy at this time.
“All relevant police authorities are aware of the situation and are conducting their investigations presently.”
There is probably more to this story than we’re seeing right now. We will see what detectives discover during their investigation.
