Here are the top 3 stories in Tulsa today:

1. A woman was arrested on Wednesday evening after allegedly shooting her husband twice, including once in the head. The suspect, Linda Burton, was booked into Tulsa County jail on a $75,000 bond. Her husband was transported to a nearby hospital for treatment and is in unknown condition. (KTUL)
2. The City of Tulsa was one of only two cities nationwide to receive a "Class 1" rating in the National Flood Insurance Program. City leaders attended a ceremony on Thursday afternoon at the Centennial Center in Veterans Park to receive recognition for the new rating. Beginning next month, homeowners can receive a discount of up to 45 percent on their flood insurance. (News On 6)
3. A family is asking for help locating their 12-year-old son's stolen go-kart. Brendan Wolfe's parents say the kart was strapped to the back of the family trailer at the Arnolds car show last weekend when somebody cut the straps and stole it. Anyone with information about the kart's whereabouts or who recognizes the suspect seen in the dashcam video is asked to call the Tulsa Police Department. (KOKI FOX 23 TULSA)
