SUMMARY: An Arizona man, Paul Gill, was reunited with his dog, Damian, eight years after losing him in Oklahoma City. In 2017, while traveling, Damian slipped out of his collar and vanished. Despite searching and continuing his journey, Paul never gave up hope. Eight years later, while driving to California, Paul received a message that Damian had been found. A family in Oklahoma City had discovered him and took him to the vet, where a microchip led them back to Paul. Damian, now 14, was returned home, highlighting the importance of microchipping pets. The family who found Damian was also missing their own dog.

SUMMARY: The Cleveland County Turnpike project is back on after being delayed for over a year due to legal challenges. The Oklahoma Supreme Court ruled in favor of the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority (OTA), allowing work to resume. A new route for the southern extension is being considered, possibly between 48th and 72nd streets, aiming to redirect heavy traffic from Oklahoma City. The project faces resistance, with concerns that it could affect homeowners in the new route area. The OTA insists that protecting families is a priority, though critics argue the turnpike is unnecessary and could cause harm to local communities.
