Drummond thanked everyone for their prayers and said they think her nephew and husband will be OK: “Caleb and Ladd are in the hospital, but we think they will both be okay.”
Oklahoma Highway Patrol previously said due to high winds across grass and gravel, the two vehicles collided head-on and Caleb was ejected from the truck.
Osage County Emergency Management Director Jerry Roberts said each vehicle only had one firefighter in it and they collided on each truck’s driver side. He said the two firefighters are ranch employees.
Osage Nation fire crews said more than 200 acres have been burned.
