Tulsa Officer Injured In Shooting Makes Donation To Community Outreach Project

TULSA, Okla. -

A Tulsa Police officer who survived a gunshot wound is finding new ways to give back to the community.

Officer Aurash Zarkeshan was badly injured in a shooting in June. His partner, Sergeant Craig Johnson was killed.

This week, officer Zarkeshan donated a new Playstation 5 to “Project Engage.” That’s a new initiative from the police department to give kids an opportunity to play video games with their local police offices and get to know them better.
