SUMMARY: Oklahoma City leaders are meeting today to discuss the future location of the Oklahoma County Jail amidst ongoing struggles between the county and city. Recently, the Oklahoma County Board of Commissioners requested court intervention after the city denied a rezoning request for the jail’s construction on East Graham Boulevard. Oklahoma Attorney General Gentner Drummond urged both parties to collaborate and emphasized the city should follow its zoning codes while allowing the county some immunity. Voters approved the jail’s construction nearly three years ago, and discussions continue as the city remains silent on the ongoing litigation.

SUMMARY: Rudy Oiltweet, an 84-year-old man from Anadarko, lost his home of over 50 years to a fire caused by a space heater. A Ring doorbell camera alerted his family, helping him escape but leaving behind cherished memories and belongings, including a guitar collection intended for his nephew. The loss felt like losing his late wife, Barbara, again, as everything tied to her was destroyed. Without home insurance, Rudy faces an uncertain future, but his family is rallying together to find ways to help him rebuild and remain on the property they’ve called home for generations.

SUMMARY: At a high school, parents were on edge as sirens sounded and a school shutdown was announced.
