Cimarron County Deputy Nathan Cobb, and his K-9 part-ner prepare to check tthe two white vans in front of theSheriff’s unit. The vans, registered in Kansas, werestopped on a traffic villation Monday night. The driverwas taken to the Cimarron County Sheriff’s Office forquestioning about the Feb. 26 robbery of The Fist StateBank of Boise City. He and his vans were later released.
by C.F. DavidA routine traffic stop east of
Keyes Monday night brought aKansas driver in for questioningabout last month’s bank robberyin Boise City.
The driver, as for now releasedand unnamed, was driving a one-ton 15- passenger van and pull-ing a white mini-van whenstopped by OHP Trooper DuaneJohnson Monday night. Johnsonstopped the vehicles for a defec-tive tail light on the pulled van.
“He had some of those mag-netic towing lights, and was blink-ing on and off,” Johnson ex-plained.
When the trooper approachedthe vehicles he noticed the smallervan was similar in size and colorof the reported robbery van andthat the driver’s profile bore aresemblance to pictures capturedby surveillance cameras at TheFirst State Bank of Boise City.
The vehicles, registered inKansas, (the mini-van had notags), were westbound whenstopped.
The driver, with an address inOverland Park, Kan., (a KansasCity suburb), told Johnson that hewas pulling the mini-van to BoiseCity to leave at his uncle’s bodyshop.
“I was impressed that he pro-nounced Boise City correctly,”Johnson said. “So I asked for hisuncle’s name.”
The driver gave the name ofa Spanish male.
“Well I knew we had no oneby that name with a body shop inBoise City,” Johnson said.
Johnson then asked more

questions. He learned that theman was supposed to work themedical field in a hospital inOverland Park.
Then he changed the storyon what his job descriptionwas.
He told me several differ-ent things…lies. I asked himwhy, he said he got scared,”Johnson shrugged.
By this time outside investi-gators had arrived in Boise City,as well as K-9 Deputy NathanCobb. Cobb took his partner toa local location and had the dogcheck for any indication ofdrugs. It made no hit for drugs,so there was no probable causeto open the van.
Meanwhile, an investigatorfor a federal agency asked forand was denied permission tosearch the interior of the ve-hicles.
A picture of the driver wasshown to the Boise City bankteller, but she couldn’t make apositive I.D.
The suspect told the investi-gators that he had been at workat the hospital on Friday, the 26th
and gave permission for his payrecords at the hospital to be ex-amined. The hospital refusedand proceedings for a subpoenawere begun.
With the investigation sty-mied, the driver and his vehicleswere released. By this time,Johnson had learned the mini-van would be eventually towedinto Chihuahua, Mexico.
“His uncle is supposed topick it up in Clayton, N.M.,”Johnson said.
Really Lucky...There were no injuries on Monday when this truck over-turned at Kerrick, at the intersection of Highways 171and 287.

Edmondson has begun arun for Governor. He vis-ited Cimarron County onSunday and Monday
By C.F. DavidOklahoma’s Attorney Gen-
eral Drew Edmondson, accom-panied by his wife Linda, swungthrough Cimarron County Sun-day and Monday.
Edmondson, a Democrat, inhis second term as AG has de-cided to run for governor thisfall.
“This is my first campaignfor governor in the Panhandle.I have campaigned in the Pan-handle every year I’ve run foroffice,” he smiled.
Edmondson said that job onefor him should he win thegovernor’s office will be jobsand to stimulate the economy.
“2011 is going to be a diffi-cult year,” he said.
“We are going to be plug-ging holes in such things asMedicaid. This will be a diffi-cult budget year and it will benecessary to move theeconomy.”
To stimulate the economyEdmondson said problems withoil and gas production wouldneed to be solved and that elec-trical transmission lines andwind energy were also impor-tant.
“We [Oklahoma] need to
A.G. Drew Edmondson Treks Panhandlein Anticipation of Run for Governor
build our renewable energy port-folio. That is a top priority.”
“We have no place in Oklahomathat builds the wind turbines so wewon’t get those jobs.”
Edmondson pointed to the pos-sibility of construction jobs, and theoperation of the turbines and linesfor the jobs Oklahoma will need.
He pointed out that with theclosing of Oklahoma City’s GMplant and its takeover by TinkerAir Force Base, that the OklahomaCity area had plenty of early-re-tired United Auto Workers thathad skills that the state could use.
“There are a number of areaswhere we need to and can stimu-late jobs. We could be big in bio-medical research. The state is in agood position to give tax incentivesto companies wanting to comehere.”
“We have a lot of natural gas,and I’d be willing to bet there is nowhere in Cimarron County you canfill your vehicle with compressednatural gas. We need to point outto people that we can power theirvehicles, and generate their powerwith our natural gas…we haveabout 100 years worth of it to use.”
Edmondson again pointed outthat those tax incentives could beused right down to a home having
a pump installed to fill their ownvehicles with CNG.
When asked if he had con-cerns about Cap and Trade leg-islation, he replied in the affir-mative.
“I worry about what cap andtrade might do to Oklahoma’sOil and Gas Revenues and itsagriculture. If it should passwe’ll need to be ready to pivotand take advantage of what wehave. It could be that our farm-ers could sell carbon credits.”
Asked about the President’splans for health care,Edmondson said he liked thetack taken by Oklahoma.
“I like what we’ve done inOklahoma with our InsureOklahoma Plan. We’ve fi-nanced with tobacco taxes andit’s made private health careavailable to small businessesthat otherwise couldn’t haveafforded it.”
“But, I, as governor wouldwant to stay focused on Okla-homa. We have congressionalrepresentation in Washingtonthat understands what Okla-homa wants. From my stand-point I want to let Frank Lucasworry about Washington,”Edmondson said.
Farmers and ranchers in 74Oklahoma counties including Ci-marron County and TexasCounty, who suffered physicaland production losses as a resultof combined effects of extremeweather, including drought, floods,hail, freeze, fire, and high windsthat began September 1, 2008,and ended June 30, 2009 are re-minded of the upcoming loan ap-plication deadline.
