Late last week in southeast Tulsa near 15400 East 38th Street, Tulsa police responded to a burglary from a vehicle just after 9 a.m. Officers soon learned that the suspects, later identified as two 12-year-olds and a 13-year-old, had allegedly stolen a white Hyundai. Around 9:45 a.m., the same vehicle was seen ramming a garage door multiple times at a house near 10200 East 24th Street, which resulted in property damage before the suspects fled the area. Utilizing real-time surveillance, officers located the stolen car at a retail parking lot near 31st and Garnett. All three suspects were apprehended while lingering nearby and were linked to additional burglaries, including incidents in Broken Arrow, through recovered stolen items and electronic traces. As per Tulsa Police, all three were arrested and face charges including possession of a stolen vehicle, attempted burglary, hit and run, knowingly concealing stolen property, and criminal conspiracy. The investigation revealed that one suspect, a tribal member, will have their case transferred to tribal and federal authorities under the McGirt ruling. The remaining cases are under further review by local law enforcement.

This week, a coordinated prostitution solicitation sting in the Catoosa area, conducted with support from agencies including the Cherokee Nation Marshal Service and the Oklahoma Attorney General’s Office, resulted in the arrest of seven men on solicitation-related charges. Two of those arrested, Jacob Tolliver and Brandon Harvey, also face allegations of soliciting a minor. According to Catoosa Police, one suspect, Thomas Whitt, was additionally charged with possession of a firearm while committing a felony. Another, Sammy Williams, faces charges for trafficking and possessing controlled substances and drug paraphernalia. All suspects were booked into custody and the investigation remains ongoing.
