TULSA, Okla - Large crowds are expected for the Tulsa State Fair this weekend, and law enforcement will be in place.

Deputies say there will be at least 100 uniformed deputies monitoring the fair Friday night.

That doesn't include the mounted patrol, under cover deputies, or deputies on bikes.

They'll cover the midway, and parking lots as well. A judge is on hand to arraign juvenile offenders.

"Obviously on Friday and Saturday nights, that's the busiest times. Lots of people come out, that's when the most mischief happens as well. We are going to make sure that we are saturated throughout the entire fair," said Tulsa County Sheriff's Office Sgt. Shannon Clark

Last night the Tulsa County Sheriff's Department says it broke up four fights, but report no major crimes.
