Good morning, First Capital, and welcome to a sunny Thursday. Crews were called Wednesday afternoon to a two-vehicle crash on Broadway near Cripple Creek Drive that sent two people to hospitals, and an unoccupied Kia left on eastbound Highway 33 near Seventh Street was towed Wednesday morning. Logan County Rural Water District 2 holds its board's annual meeting at 6 p.m. From around the state, News 9 reports Oklahoma lawmakers are seeking more than $500 million in federal funding for local projects, and KOSU looks at who is running to be Oklahoma's next Commissioner of Labor.
