Oklahoma City, OK — September 30, 2024
From September 12 to September 22, Oklahoma City firefighters recorded a total of 131 official calls for service at the Oklahoma State Fair. This major event contributed approximately 7% of the city’s total EMS call volume during that period.
Firefighters and emergency medical services (EMS) personnel were actively engaged in addressing a variety of incidents. While the 131 documented calls reflect official emergencies, many additional interactions—such as transports to vehicles and general assistance—were provided but not officially recorded.
