Heavy Rain Causes Emergency Rescues

OKC Fire-Facebook

Oklahoma City Fire crews responded to over two dozen emergency weather related calls last night. Heavy rain caused flash flooding leaving people stranded in cars across the Capitol City.

The Oklahoma City Fire Department reported on its Facebook page that dispatchers were "slammed" by the storms.

Other heavy storms caused problems in South East Kansas. People had to be rescued from the homes and cars in the town on Independence, north of Coffeyville.
