OKLAHOMA CITY (July 19, 2025) – The office of Attorney General Gentner Drummond will prosecute an Oklahoma City man accused of damaging the weather radar of Oklahoma City TV station KWTV Channel 9.
Early this month, Anthony Tyler Mitchell, 39, allegedly vandalized the power supply of News 9’s NextGen live radar. He is charged with malicious injury or destruction of property, and damage to equipment in a critical infrastructure facility. Both are felonies. In addition, Mitchell faces a misdemeanor of entering with the intent to commit a felony.
