OKLAHOMA CITY —
Authorities say a man found dead in his home in Oklahoma City was a retired physician who’d had a history of run-ins with law enforcement.
Police say 58-year-old Deepak Bhasin called 911 on Tuesday night and said he’d been attacked. Authorities say Bhasin was dead in his home when emergency responders arrived.
No suspects have been identified and his cause of death has not been released.
