City Attorney Beth Anne Childs reported to the Bristow City Council on Dec. 1, 2025 that the FBI has been advised and has located a $62,000 check that had been paid for the city's barricades and was intercepted.
Childs told the council, "The $62,000.00 was the money that was paid for the City's barricades, and someone has intercepted the check. The FBI found it, and is holding it. Once we get the $62,000.00 back, we will have to pay back OMAG $10,000.00, for what the Insurance had paid us." The minutes record that the FBI found the check and is holding it; the council did not vote on any action related to the recovered funds during the meeting.
The minutes identify OMAG as the insurer that paid funds on the city's behalf and which the city must reimburse $10,000 after recovery; no additional financial or timeline details were provided in the minutes.
