Good morning, this is Tulsa Local Pulse for Wednesday, November 27, 2024. We're starting off with some breaking news from the past few days. A second person has been arrested in connection to a deadly shooting that happened after an incident at the Tulsa State Fair[2]. Additionally, Tulsa Police are investigating a domestic-related shooting at Mohawk Manor and a deadly rollover crash on Highway 169 between 21st and 31st Street[2].
Moving on to our job market snapshot, there haven't been any major hiring announcements or notable business expansions recently. However, we do want to highlight the efforts of local organizations like Restore Hope, which saw a 37% increased need for Thanksgiving baskets this year. Over 50 volunteers made their basket giveaway possible, serving hundreds of families in need[5].
In real estate news, a multi-million dollar luxury estate is available in Northeast Oklahoma City, sitting on 80 acres with a 10,859 square-foot residence[2]. Closer to home, we don't have any significant updates on commercial or residential property sales in Tulsa, but we'll keep an eye on any developments.
From City Hall, there's been a focus on addressing homelessness, with the Tulsa Day Center opening a new animal shelter to welcome pets of those experiencing homelessness[1][3]. This is a crucial step in providing comprehensive support to our community's most vulnerable members.
Weather-wise, it's going to be a breezy day with temperatures in the mid-60s, perfect for outdoor activities like the Route 66 Marathon, which returns to Tulsa this weekend with multiple races and road closures[3]. Make sure to check the latest forecasts and plan your weekend accordingly.
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[2]. On the other hand, Quickie-Mart has officially closed its giant skate ramps, a decision that has been met with mixed reactions from the community[2][3].
Looking ahead to community events, the Jenks Christmas Parade is just around the corner, with the route and detours already announced[1]. Also, don't miss the Jolly Lane Lights at the Admiral Twin, a festive event that's sure to get you in the holiday spirit[1].
In local school achievements, Metro Christian has moved on to the 2A-1 semi-finals, and Jenks got revenge, beating Union in the 6A-1 quarter-finals[3]. Congratulations to all the teams and their supporters.
For a feel-good community story, we want to highlight the efforts of 'Baby Holly', a woman who was missing for more than 40 years and is now helping other families with missing loved ones[2][3]. Her story is a testament to the resilience and compassion of our community.
Finally, in today's crime report, a man was arrested for allegedly ramming his car into a vehicle driven by his child's mother[2]. 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.
