First, today's weather:

Cooler with showers around. High: 55 Low: 38.

Here are the top three stories in Tulsa today:

1. A car drove into a Coach store at Utica Square Monday morning. Thankfully, no one was injured during the incident. A Mustang accelerated into the front windows of the store, according to the Tulsa Fire Department. A wrecker had to be called to remove the car from the store. (KTUL)
2. The Tulsa community is rallying for a single father following a massive crash on the Cimarron Turnpike. 50-year-old David Tilley, the father of three children, is currently fighting for his life after a crash with a semi-truck that happened earlier this month. Tilley's car had burst into flames after the crash and was pulled from the car moments before the car exploded. A GoFundMe has been set up to help provide for Tilley’s children while he recovers.
