Fire Destroys Okmulgee Home
The Okmulgee Fire Department has been busy lately with several structure fires, including this one Tuesday evening near Osage and Lafayette Street. OFD “B” battled the blaze, which completely destroyed the home. Chief Dewayne Hurt and his department are encouraging everyone to not only have smoke detectors (along with carbon monoxide detectors) installed, but be sure to check they are working properly. Landlords are required to have smoke detectors installed in their rental properties. With the upcoming time change on March 10, citizens are encouraged to put that on their to-do list.
