Published 1 year, 4 months ago
Description
Good morning, this is Tulsa Local Pulse for December 1, 2024. We're starting off the week with a mix of news that affects our daily lives and some exciting community events.
First off, let's talk about breaking news. A man was arrested after allegedly ramming his car into a vehicle driven by his child's mother on Thursday morning. Deputies responded to a call around 7:15 a.m. near a local intersection. This incident highlights the importance of addressing domestic violence in our community.
In other news, the Tulsa Day Center has opened a new animal shelter, welcoming pets of those experiencing homelessness. This is a significant development for our city, providing much-needed support for vulnerable populations.
On the job market front, we don't have any major hiring announcements to share today, but it's worth noting that the current unemployment rate remains stable. We'll keep an eye on any changes and bring you updates as they happen.
Moving to real estate, a multi-million dollar luxury estate is available in Northeast Oklahoma City, sitting on 80 acres with a 10,859 square-foot residence. While not in Tulsa proper, this listing gives us a glimpse into the high-end market in our region.
From city hall, we have an update on drone-focused growth in Tulsa. The city is exploring ways to integrate drones into various sectors, which could lead to new business opportunities and job creation.
Weather-wise, it's going to be a warm but breezy weekend, perfect for the Route 66 Marathon, which returns to Tulsa with multiple races and road closures. If you're planning to participate or spectate, make sure to check the latest traffic updates.
In new business activity, Pathways Adult Learning Center, a nonprofit dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, has opened a donation center. This is a great addition to our community, providing resources and support for those who need it.
Looking ahead to community events, the Jenks Christmas Parade is coming up, with the route and detours already announced. Make sure to mark your calendars for this festive event.
In local school achievements, Metro Christian moves on to the 2A-1 semi-finals, and Jenks gets revenge, beating Union in the 6A-1 quarter-finals. Congratulations to these teams on their wins.
For a feel-good community story, let's talk about "Baby Holly," who was missing for more than 40 years and is now helping identify missing persons. Her story is a testament to resilience and the power of community support.
Finally, in today's crime report, Tulsa police are investigating a deadly rollover crash on Highway 169 between 21st and 31st Street. A second person has been arrested in connection to a deadly shooting that happened after an incident at the Tulsa State Fair. We urge everyone to stay vigilant and report any suspicious activity to the authorities.
This has been Tulsa Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
