Judge Rejects Oklahoma Inmate's Try To Stop Execution
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- A federal judge has rejected an attempt by an Oklahoma inmate to stop his pending execution for the slayings of two people. U.S. District Judge David Russell on Monday denied inmate George Ochoa's attempt for a stay of execution. Ochoa's attorney has appealed Russell's ruling to the U.S. 10th Circuit Court of Appeals. The 38-year-old Ochoa is scheduled to be executed Tuesday for the 1993 shooting deaths of two people in their Oklahoma City home while three of the couple's young children were present. Ochoa maintains he is innocent. Ochoa's attorneys also claim their client is insane and that Oklahoma's procedure for determining competency to be executed is unconstitutional. But Russell rejected both of those claims in his order on Monday.

Okla. reopens emergency operations command center
May 23, 2013 17:37 GMT
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- The Oklahoma Department of Emergency Management has reopened its emergency operations center as strong storms moved through central Oklahoma just days after a deadly tornado.
Department spokeswoman Keli Cain said Thursday that the center is open. The department had previously announced that the command center would be shut down at Wednesday at midnight.
Storms with heavy rain and hail began falling in the area early Thursday morning and prompted flash flood warnings in central Oklahoma.
The storms come after a massive tornado struck Moore on Monday and left 24 people dead and more than 300 injured.
