A TRAGIC START TO MONDAY MORNING ON OKLAHOMA CITY ROADS. THREE FOUND ON OKLAHOMA CITY ROADS IN TWO SEPARATE INCIDENTS
OKLAHOMA CITY — It's been a tragic start to this Monday morning on our roads and highways.
According to what's been reported by the Oklahoma City Police Department, officers responded to two separate incidents in northeast Oklahoma City where three people were found lying in the road.
The first call came in around 1:00 a.m. near Northeast 36th St. and the I-35 Interstate. Police say two people had been hit by a vehicle. Tragically, one person died at the scene. The other was taken to the hospital and their condition has not yet been released.
Then, about 30 minutes later, around 1:30 a.m., officers found another person lying in the roadway near Broadway Extension and Northeast 63rd St. Sadly, that person was also found dead.
At this time, it's unclear whether the two incidents are connected, and police have not released the identities of those involved. This is a developing story, and we'll keep y'all updated as we learn more.
Our hearts go out to everyone impacted by these heartbreaking tragedies. Please be careful if you're out on the roads, especially during the overnight and early morning hours. Stay alert, slow down, and keep an eye out for others. Sometimes, just a few extra seconds of caution can make all the difference.
