NORMAN —
Three local fugitives wanted in connection with alleged child sexual abuse were recently apprehended, the Cleveland County Sheriff’s Office announced Wednesday.
The Cleveland County fugitives were found in Vancouver, Wash., on Tuesday night and arrested by U.S. Marshals.
Joseph Michael Siford, 40, and Danyale Bernice Siford, 34, both of Moore, and Michelle Danae Walker, 43, of Noble, were booked into Clark County jail after a traffic stop led to their arrests.
U.S. Marshals had identified the vehicle at a motel and proceeded to monitor the vehicle before pulling them over and taking them into custody. Marshals in Vancouver had been provided with photos of all three people and a vehicle description of the Sifords’ pickup.
The fugitives were arrested without incident. Officials said charges for the three suspects are pending in Cleveland County District Court.

UPDATE: Tornado touches portions of Edmond
Roger Williams and his wife Shellie, residents in Edmond’s Thornbrooke neighborhood since 2004, were watching the weather reports Sunday as a large storm approached the city.
When they heard reports that a tornado was spotted near Broadway and 15th Street, then Broadway and 33rd Street, the couple and their son Ethan, 11, took cover in a reinforced interior closet. After they closed the door it got eerily quiet, like being in the eye of a hurricane, Roger said. As the tornado passed by, they could hear a few bangs outside.
“I was kind of scared,” Ethan said. -
