Police: Driver intentionally ran over 3 homeless people in Tulsa, killing one

[Runningdawg]

“The pickup truck actually circled the block a couple of times before coming back, driving up over the curb and driving down the sidewalk to run over these individuals,”
According to the Tulsa World, the pickup is described as a small, white mid ’80s to ’90s truck.
The driver who fled the scene is described as a white male in his 40s, wearing a baseball cap.

This area is near the jail, Salvation Army Shelter and numerous 24/7 bail bond offices. In other words MULTIPLE cameras. I hope the police are able to release a picture of the truck and possible the driver soon, or even better, they already have a suspect.

4. That source usually contains the more sensational news items

but I used it instead of the Tulsa World because the TW only allows a few free reads a month and I wanted everyone to be able to access the source.
OK is and always has been a violent place but many here are desensitized to it. Some are proud of it. If you delve into the less-known history of OK, you will see this state and particularly Osage County where I am from, was one of the last hold overs from the wild-wild west, where cowboys and indians played out in real life.
As a child I heard stories, first hand from relatives who were there, of not only the now famous case of the Osage Indian murders as told in Killers of the Flower Moon, but many other instances of extreme violence. My Grandmother who lived in Osage County from 1894-1976 told me the FIRST time she saw a man murdered was a drunk cowboy who shot at an Osage and missed. The Osage then stabbed the man to death. This took place outside a bank when she was 10 years old.
