MOORE, Okla. – A man is recovering after being attacked with a knife in his own garage in Moore early this morning.

Around 12:45 a.m., a homeowner says he was working on his motorcycle in his garage near I-35 and NE 18th when a stranger came up asking for money.

The homeowner told police that he said, “no” and the stranger left.

However, police say that man came back a short time later with a friend.

The homeowner was able to fire one shot before the men exited the garage.
