Four people have died and over 200 have been injured in wildfires across Oklahoma, according to officials. The deaths occurred in Lincoln, Garfield, Haskell, and Pawnee counties, with the victims either succumbing to the fires or high winds. One victim in Pawnee was unable to evacuate his home as it was engulfed in flames, leading to his death. Concerned neighbors discovered what is believed to be human remains in the scorched home. One victim, identified as youth wrestling coach Allen Ferguson, died while trying to save his son, who is in critical condition. The Oklahoma State Department of Health has reported at least 200 injuries, and more than 400 homes have been damaged. Residents are urged to report damage to assist officials in identifying impacted areas. Due to windy conditions and low humidity, a red flag warning is in effect across much of the state until Tuesday night.
