An Arkansas man was hospitalized Sunday when he was hit by a stray bullet while in an area of Tulsa County near the Arkansas River that target shooters frequent.

About 2 p.m., Tulsa County sheriff's deputies received a report a man had been shot in the back at a home in the 14500 block of West 19th Street, near Sand Springs, spokeswoman Casey Roebuck said.

Surveillance footage from the home and witness reports indicate no one was in the backyard when the man was shot, leading deputies to believe the shot was fired yards away, Roebuck said.
