"Broken Arrow Murder-Suicide, E. Coli Advisory, and Upcoming Weekend Events"

Good morning, this is Tulsa Local Pulse for Thursday, May 29, 2025. Broken Arrow police are investigating what appears to be a murder-suicide discovered yesterday evening. Officers found an adult man, a juvenile male, and a dog deceased inside a home on West Roanoke Street while serving a warrant related to a missing person case. Police have assured residents there is no ongoing threat to the public. In retail crime news, Tulsa Police responded to a shoplifting call yesterday that resulted in two arrests and one citation. This incident serves as a reminder of ongoing efforts to combat retail theft in our community. Those planning water activities should note an E. Coli advisory has been issued for parts of Grand Lake, Hudson Lake, and the Illinois River. The Grand River Dam Authority plans to retest affected areas today. Local business owners are hoping the advisory lifts soon, as we approach the summer tourism season. At City Hall, the Tulsa Metropolitan Area Planning Commission recently held their meeting where they considered several zoning applications, including a preliminary plat approval for a Route 66 Engineering project. The commission also reviewed proposed amendments to overlay districts in the zoning code. For those interested in faith activities, the Oklahoma Annual Conference is streaming live today from Boston Avenue United Methodist Church. Sessions began this morning and will continue throughout the day. Looking ahead to the weekend, several events are on tap. The Black Wall Street Legacy Festival begins Saturday, commemorating the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre with free events led by survivors and descendants on North Greenwood Avenue. Also on Saturday, music lovers can enjoy Arrival from Sweden performing the music of ABBA at the Mabee Center, while food enthusiasts should head to Jenks for the America Food Truck Festival starting at 11 am. Weather conditions are favorable for outdoor activities today with temperatures reaching into the low 70s, warming up to near 80 by tomorrow. This pleasant weather should hold for the weekend events. In COVID news, health officials report the first increase in cases since the end of the national emergency, so those attending large gatherings may want to exercise caution. The Oklahoma nonprofit community is pushing for a legislative veto override as the deadline approaches, while locally, attorney Ron Durbin was found not guilty of obstructing an officer in a case that's drawn significant attention.
