THERE. WELL GUYS WE’VE BEEN HERE SINCE BEFORE NOON AND HAVE SEEN OKLAHOMA HIGHWAY PATROL AND OKLAHOMA CITY POLICE HERE ALL OVER THE PLACE. NOW, IF I STEP OUT OF THE WAY, YOU’LL SEE THAT THEIR PRESENCE IS NOT REALLY AS BIG ANYMORE. THERE ARE STILL SOME CARS HERE, BUT WE EVEN SAW INVESTIGATORS SEARCHING THROUGH THESE BUSHES RIGHT BESIDE THE BUILDING. AT ONE POINT, THE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S OFFICE SAID IN A STATEMENT. THERE’S BEEN AN ACTIVE LAW ENFORCEMENT OPERATION NOT INVOLVING ANY ATTORNEY GENERAL PERSONNEL. NOW, WHILE THEY WHILE THEY MENTIONED EVERYONE WAS SAFE IN THE BUILDING, WAS SECURE, THEY HAD NO COMMENT ON WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED INSIDE THE OKLAHOMA COUNTY DA MENTIONED THAT WHATEVER HAPPENED STARTED IN THE PARKING LOT. WE REACHED OUT TO OHP, WHO SAYS THEY WERE OVER THIS, BUT THEY TOLD US THE ONLY INFORMATION WE WOULD GET WOULD BE FROM THE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S STATEMENT. AROUND 1 P.M., WE SAW A MASS EXODUS OF PEOPLE LEAVING THE BUILDING AND HEADING TO THEIR CARS. THE WHOLE TIME WE’VE BEEN HERE, INVESTIGATORS HAVE BEEN TAKING PICTURES OF CARS AND PARTS OF THE PARKING LOT THAT HAVE BEEN BLOCKED OFF WITH CRIME SCENE TAPE. AT ONE POINT, WE EVEN SAW INVESTIGATORS PUTTING SOMEONE INTO A VAN IN HANDCUFFS. BUT WE DON’T KNOW HOW THAT PERSON IS RELATED JUST YET. WE’RE GOING TO CONTINUE PUSHING FOR THOSE ANSWERS AND GET MORE FOR YOU. WH
