Good morning, Tulsa.

A Jenks man, Jason Gardner Davis, 52, was sentenced Thursday to six and a half years in prison and 10 years of supervised release for receiving and distributing child sexual abuse material after analysis of his cellphone revealed 99 images and 39 videos—he is also required to pay $5,100 in restitution and register as a sex offender.

Police are investigating a fatal motorcycle crash that occurred on September 4th in Tulsa when a 23-year-old rider tried to avoid traffic and collided with another vehicle—he died at the hospital while the other drivers were not seriously injured.

DJ Sydney Lee will host Tulsa’s second annual Neon Prairie festival today at POSTOAK Lodge, where national headliners, regional artists, and immersive experiences will bring music and creativity to life.

Early voting is underway for a $169M bond measure by Owasso Public Schools to fund new classrooms, playgrounds, tornado-safe shelters, and other upgrades—voters may cast ballots at the Tulsa County Election Board until 6 p.m. Friday.

Oklahoma officials launched the 'Never Skip the Click' campaign to boost seatbelt use after data showed only 86% compliance and highway signs will display safety reminders every Wednesday during the month.

The program will work with public safety groups—using classroom kits and social media challenges—to encourage habits that can reduce fatal crashes.

Today, South Elwood Avenue at West 71st Street South is closed to traffic for a private widening project from West 71st to West 73rd Street (crews are striping the pavement) and drivers must use detour signs.
