Only 18 arrests over 11 days during the Tulsa State Fair. Pretty good numbers, according to Sheriff Vic Regalado, who says there were not any serious incidents on the fairgrounds this year. He does say there were 145 lost children reported, but the I.D. wristband campaign helped find them. That program will continue in future years.
Regalado says there were negative comments made by some people directed toward deputies because of recent events across the country, but he says by far, most people were complimentary of deputies and their work. Official numbers aren’t in, but it’s believed a million people attended.
