🚨 UPDATE🚨

All crossings are open

Train crossings are down and blocking Highway 20, 1st Street, 3rd Street and 9th Street.

NE 5th is open.

Union Pacific has been notified, I’ll update when they are open.

We have received a report that our phone number has been cloned and citizens are receiving calls that they have warrants through the City of Pryor Creek. The person identified themselves as a Pryor officer with badge #3869. They instructed the individual to move funds around to pay the warrant over the phone.

A Pryor Officer will never contact you by phone for the payment of a warrant. Fine payments are handled by City Hall and they do not accept bitcoin, cashapp, or gift cards.

Do not give these callers your personal information and if you feel the call is suspicious, feel free to contact us at 918-825-1212.
