Authorities are investigating an apparent murder-suicide after three people, including two children, were found dead inside a vehicle near Highway 85 and East 340 Road early Saturday.
The Delaware County Sheriff’s Office responded to a report of an abandoned vehicle around 6 a.m. Upon arrival, deputies discovered the bodies of Alisia Peña, 38, of Tulsa, and her two children, both under the age of 10.

“At this time we are still trying to determine why she was in the area, there’s no none known family or contacts of hers that are in the area.,” said Cpt. Jackie Smithson, with the Delaware County Sheriff’s Office.
Deputies say they plan to interview family members next week to determine why this happened.
No additional details are being released at this time.

According to the DA, on October 16, 2025, Matthews drove six juveniles under her care to a business on Lincoln Parkway, and the juveniles, between the ages of 10 and 16, intentionally vandalized outdoor furniture and windows, causing approximately $2,000 in damage to the property.
The DA said that as a condition of the plea, Matthews signed a Confession of Judgment to pay $2,000 in restitution to the victim. Matthews faces a maximum of 364 days in jail when she is sentenced on June 9, 2026 and a temporary order of protection, issued on behalf of the property owner, remains in effect.
7 News spoke with Mike Shatzel, co-owner of The Terrace at Delaware Park, where the vandalism occurred, last October.
“It’s just disturbing that people have nothing better to do than come and just destroy things,” Shatzel said in October.
