Firefighters Warn: Drowning Risk This Labor Day | Oklahoma City News

Oklahoma City firefighters are sounding the alarm for Labor Day weekend, warning of 18 drownings this year—including four in August—with a desperate plea to prevent more tragedies. Drowning can strike in seconds, so they urge everyone—especially kids—to wear Coast Guard-approved life jackets, never swim or boat alone, and avoid alcohol around water. Designate a sober “water watcher,” ditch inflatable toys for real safety gear, and stay alert: your fun day should end with everyone safe and dry.
