Inset: Branden Daniels (Tulsa Police Department). Background: Daniels can be seen on police body camera footage being arrested on Feb. 17, 2026 (Tulsa Police Department).
The Tulsa Police Department reported that 39-year-old Branden Daniels has been charged with first-degree burglary, following a past felony conviction, as well as obstruction. This information was shared in a press release from the agency.
The incident unfolded in the early hours of Tuesday morning.
Around 3:20 a.m., the woman contacted Tulsa police, reporting that her ex-boyfriend had threatened to damage her tires because she refused to date him again. The police department humorously noted that this was hardly an effective method for winning someone back.
At about 3:20 a.m., a woman called the Tulsa Police Department and told officers that “her ex-boyfriend was threatening to slash her tires over her not going out with him.” The law enforcement agency quipped that “this is not the most effective way to win someone over.”
According to the woman, Daniels showed up at her apartment in the area of 63rd Street and Peoria Avenue in the city “and was yelling at her from outside,” police said. The defendant allegedly continued to threaten her “before breaking a bedroom window and climbing into the apartment.”
Photos provided by the department show shattered glass in a home”s window — as well as apparently the ensuing moments as officers arrived.
The responding officers allegedly found Daniels “climbing out of the bedroom window,” and when he noticed them, he “screamed and froze,” allowing law enforcement to detain him and bring him into custody.
In one photo believed to be taken from an officer’s body-worn camera footage, the suspect can be seen with his hands in the air as an officer points what appears to be a stun gun at him.
Daniels was placed in the Tulsa County Jail on the aforementioned charges.
