Slick Road Conditions Causes Multiple Crashes; Canadian Co. Deputy Involved

Light freezing drizzle has caused slick roads to develop in North Central, Central, and Western Oklahoma.

Early Sunday morning three accidents took place at I-40 and Garth Brooks in Yukon, due to a glaze of ice covering the bridge.

Authorities confirm that a Canadian County deputy was involved. According to the report, the deputy hit an icy patch, lost control, and over corrected sending her off the roadway.

News 9 Storm Tracker Bobby Payne was on the scene.
