Three Weatherford firefighters save fellow Oklahoman in Colorado
SUMMARY: Three firefighters from Weatherford, Oklahoma, while on a hunting trip in Colorado, sprang into action to save a fellow Oklahoman, West Patton, who had become unconscious due to carbon monoxide poisoning from an old catalytic heater in his tent. Alerted to his condition, Chief Corey Selmon, Lieutenant J. Wich, and Fireman Jimmy Lich trekked eight miles up a rugged trail, bringing oxygen and medical supplies. Their quick response improved Patton’s condition, and they arranged for a medical helicopter to airlift him to a hospital. The firefighters were recognized for their heroic efforts, with a $500 donation made to their department.

Reaction to Walters' prayer video for OK students
SUMMARY: Oklahoma State Superintendent Ryan Walters faced backlash over a prayer video he wanted played in schools, expressing support for President Donald Trump and criticizing the “radical left” and teachers’ unions. While the video garnered thousands of views online, many school districts opted not to show it, citing concerns over indoctrination and emphasizing the importance of inclusivity in public education. Critics argue that the focus should be on improving educational outcomes rather than engaging in culture wars. The Attorney General’s office called Walters’ directive unenforceable, asserting it undermines local control and parental rights in education.
