AND THE GRAFFITI HERE INCLUDED ANTI ICE MESSAGES AND DEROGATORY STATEMENTS ABOUT OKLAHOMA GOVERNOR KEVIN STITT. KOCO DAKOTA. KAI. HE IS LIVE AT THE CAPITOL THIS MORNING WITH A LOOK AT WHAT WAS SPOTTED THIS MORNING AND THE INVESTIGATION SO FAR. DAKOTA. EXACTLY. YEAH, THE OKLAHOMA HIGHWAY PATROL NOW CONFIRMING THAT THEY ARE INVESTIGATING THIS GRAFFITI. IT\u2019S REALLY ALL OVER THE STATE CAPITOL COMPLEX. IT\u2019S NOT IN JUST ONE SPOT. YOU CAN TAKE A LOOK RIGHT THERE. THAT IS JUST ONE OF THE AREAS THEY\u2019VE CLEANED UP SO FAR. THAT SPOT IS EXACTLY WHERE A DEROGATORY STATEMENT ABOUT THE GOVERNOR, KEVIN STITT, WAS MADE. EVEN ON THE COLUMNS YOU CAN SEE ON THE STATE CAPITOL THERE, THOSE COLUMNS ARE ALL COVERED UP RIGHT NOW. BUT THAT SAID, DIE. I GOT A PICTURE FROM A LAWMAKER THIS MORNING SHOWING EXACTLY WHAT ALL OF THIS SAID. BUT AS YOU CAN SEE RIGHT NOW ON THE RIGHT, THEY ARE CURRENTLY CLEANING THIS UP. THIS IS THE OKLAHOMA MANAGEMENT AND ENTERPRISE SERVICES. THEY ARE DOING ALL OF THIS NOW. I REACHED OUT TO THE GOVERNOR\u2019S OFFICE THIS MORNING, AND HIS PRESS SECRETARY CAUGHT ME OUTSIDE. SHE SAID THAT THE GOVERNOR IS NOT COMMENTING. IT IS AN ACTIVE INVESTIGATION. SO SO FAR, NO COMMENT FROM THEM. BUT THE OKLAHOMA HIGHWAY PATROL, THEY TELL ME THAT THEY WILL BE TALKING WITH ME LATER THIS MORNING. THEY SAY THEY ARE INVESTIGATING. THEY\u2019VE GATHERED SOME SPRAY PAINT CANS THEY FOUND ACROSS THE COMPLEX, AND THEY ALSO GOT SOME FINGERPRINTS FROM IT. SO WE\u2019LL BE CHECKING IN WITH THEM VERY SOON.
