🌱 Nightclub Shooting Suspects At Large + Ocelot Returns To Zoo

Hello, neighbors! It's me again, Helen Eckhard, your host of the Oklahoma City Daily.

First, today's weather:

Partly sunny. High: 47 Low: 32.

Here are the top 3 stories today in Oklahoma City:

1. Police are seeking the public's help in locating two suspects wanted in connection with a shooting outside of an Oklahoma City nightclub. The incident occurred at the Zodiac Club when two people outside the club got into an altercation and one was shot. Authorities have released a video from the night and are asking anyone with information to call the Oklahoma City Police Department's Crime Stoppers at 405-235-7300. (KOCO Oklahoma City)
2. An attempted phone scam was foiled after a person claiming to be a deputy accidentally called the Oklahoma County Sheriff’s Office. Authorities warned Oklahoma City residents to be on the lookout for the common scam, in which the scammer calls a potential victim and claims there is a warrant out for their arrest. The Sheriff’s Office also reminded residents that they will never call and ask people for payment over the phone. (KRMG)
3. The Oklahoma City Zoo has announced the return of Raif, an 8-year-old male ocelot. Raif was born at the zoo in 2013 but was transferred to Cleveland Metroparks Zoo in 2015 as part of a breeding recommendation. Zoo guests can see Raif and his new breeding partner, Arieta, at the ocelot habitat in the Zoo’s Cat Forest area. (Norman Transcript)
