Pursuit suspect attempts to swim away from deputies

Happening today...Tulsa County investigators are expected to speak with a man caught in Pawnee County on Thursday about a missing woman.

Deputies report John Lee II was arrested following a pursuit and a short swim across the Arkansas River to the Osage County side. A witness tells us what Lee did was something out a crime thriller.

“No action ever happens out here,” the witness said.  “This is (usually) a dead zone.”

Kathy Lynn Hemphill was last seen in October 2017. Lee was spotted driving her car as recently as Wednesday.

Pawnee deputies also believe Lee is the last person to be seen with Richard Horn, who is also missing.
