ROAD RAGE

OSU students escape unharmed after violent road rage encounter D E KOTA GREGORY Sports Editor @D e kotag r egory

Camden Rader doesn’t know how close the knife was to his throat. He just said it was close enough he couldn’t see the blade when he looked down.

Only moments before, the Oklahoma State University student had been riding motorcycles in the country with friends. Now, they were facing off with angry strangers on the asphalt.

“I’m the real deal, bitch,” the man with the knife screamed in the middle of the road. “I’ll cut your f***ing throat.”

The man reportedly pulled the knife from his pocket before lifting his denim cutoff to unveil a tattoo on his stomach. Rader said that the man claimed it marked him as a member of the biker gang Hell’s Angels.

The video shows the man threatening to shoot him with a shotgun that another man brought to the scene.

The whole time, Rader could only watch as his friend Daniel, also an Oklahoma State University student who asked his last name not be used, was beaten in a ditch on the side of the worn county road, his helmet still on his head.

“I’ll blow your f***ing faces off,” the man said as he tried to grab the shotgun.

Those gripping moments went viral in a video posted Wednesday, showing OSU students involved in a road rage incident in rural Pawnee County on Sunday. As of early Thursday evening, the video, taken from one of the bikers’ mounted GoPro cameras, had more than 675,000 views on YouTube.

Rader initially shared an edited three-minute video on Facebook before taking it down after it drew law enforcement and media attention. One of his friends then

put the video on YouTube.

Rader gave the O’Colly nine minutes of Sunday’s altercation, showing the moments before the fight and as both parties left the scene.

Thursday, Pawnee County Assistant District Attorney Kyle Alderson said Paul Wiseley, 60, was arrested on complaints of robbery, assault with a deadly weapon and conspiracy in connection with the incident. Wiseley was released the same day after posting a $100,000 bond. Alderson said Wiseley has been the only arrest made despite a previous report earlier Thursday.

“I’m not sure how (the second arrest report) has come about,” Alderson said.

“But as of today, Mr. Wiseley has been the only one that’s been arrested.”

Because it is an ongoing investigation, Alderson said he could not release all of the evidence, but that there is more than only the viral video.

“What I can tell you is that the YouTube video does not capture all of the evidence that has been obtained in the case,” he said.

When the O’Colly called Wednesday night, the Pawnee County Jail wouldn’t confirm the spelling of Wiseley’s name or any information related to his arrest.

The man who answered the phone at the jail said that because Wiseley was released, the jail couldn’t release any information.

The Oklahoma Open Records Act states that law enforcement agencies must make public jail registers and jail booking information recorded on people at the time of incarceration including the name, date and cause of arrest, arresting agency and date of discharge. The act makes no exception for whether a person was already released from custody.

Before the beating and shouting started Sunday, the group of bikers said they left

Stillwater for Hallett Motor Racing Circuit to see motorcycle races.

Several in a group of 10, including Rader, rode Honda Groms, small street-legal bikes not meant for highway speeds. They took back roads, heading east on Lone Chimney Road past Glencoe before turning north into Pawnee County.

Somewhere along the way, Rader said, a navy blue late-model Chevrolet Silverado came up behind the group. Rader said the bikes stretched about 200 yards down the road, going only about 45 mph so the smaller bikes could keep up.

The truck passed the bikes going up a blind hill in a no-passing zone before the group turned north, Rader said, eventually cutting back in front of Daniel and another rider, nearly leading to a crash.

Daniel, riding a larger bike, sped up to pull alongside the truck, the video shows. Daniel said the truck driver was putting the riders in danger on the highway, and although he wanted to plead his case, he said he didn’t want a fight to start.

Not far behind, Rader looked to another biker and made sure the GoPro camera mounted on the handlebars kept recording.

“I told him to keep it rolling,” Rader said. “I didn’t know what, but I knew something bad was probably about to happen.”

After riding alongside the truck and exchanging words with its male driver and female passenger, Daniel said he noticed an older red Chevrolet pickup parked next to the road facing him.

As they approached, Daniel saw the two barrels of a shotgun pointed out the driver’s side window. Then a shot rang out toward the sky.

Daniel and the truck stopped as another truck, a blue Ford F-150, pulled out to block the bikers’ path.

As quickly as he could stop, Daniel got off his Yamaha and walked toward the Silverado’s driver.

Video from the GoPro shows an exchange of words that quickly escalated with a shove from the truck’s driver, knocking Daniel into the ditch before a brawl ensued.

As other riders approached, no one jumped to Daniel’s aid in the video.

The video shows a man wielding a shotgun shoot the firearm again before coming out of the parked red truck, then waving the gun and moving to hit Rader with it.

Then the man that the riders allege was Wiseley approached, opening his shirt and showing his tattoo before supposedly putting the knife to Rader’s neck (which cannot be seen on the video).

Daniel was in the background of the YouTube video, lying on the ground with a man on top of him throwing punches.

As a firefighter, Daniel said he has been in highstress situations before, and said didn’t want to escalate the situation.

“I did what I thought was the best thing for the scenario,” Daniel said. “Throw an all-out fistfight brawl into the mess, and if one of them would have saw me going after the other one … then there’s a possibility of, one, me getting shot or me getting

OCOLLY.COM

jumped by the other ones or getting stabbed.

“Whenever my guys would try to come in, with the shotgun and knife there, best case scenario I saw was ‘I’m not gonna get messed up too much. At least take this and let everything die down and stop, then maybe they’ll leave and leave my guys alone.’”

Daniel said he stayed conscious but had trouble breathing when the man kicked his ribs and stomped his chest. Thanks to the helmet, his face didn’t have a mark on it three days later.

Because of the beating his helmet took, the visor still comes unhitched when he wears it.

Although Daniel hopes his helmet is eventually replaced, he wants a replacement for his friend’s GoPro more.

As the situation unfolded, the man who previously held the shotgun moved to take another rider’s GoPro, reportedly damaging it and taking it.

The group did not notice the other camera, which is why Rader had a video to share.

“At that point, I wasn’t even worried about the cameras,” Rader said. “I just wanted to get out of there.”

They eventually drove away with only minor injuries and damaged equipment.

And for the next three days, they kept quiet, not wanting the ordeal to become public.

Rader posted the video to Facebook on Tuesday, but when he saw the attention it quickly gained, he immediately deleted the post. But by then, police and media outlets were trying to get involved.

“If that guy really was with Hell’s Angels, I didn’t want people coming after me,” Rader said. “I know how news can twist stories when they’re new, so I just decided not to wait.”

Rudolph’s road experience vital as Cowboys head to NFL venue Lu k e Gar za Staff Reporter @ Lu keaga r z a

Players and staff slowly walked toward media members after another practice in Sherman E. Smith Training Center on Tuesday afternoon.

Designated members of Oklahoma State’s football team stayed to speak with the media while others exited, but Mason Rudolph was more than 50 yards away, deeply entrenched in footwork drills.

Offensive coordinator Mike Yurcich was talking about what separates good quarterbacks from great ones when he took a glance to his left and saw Rudolph, who repeatedly received a snap before dropping back, scanning the empty field for

imaginary receivers.

“That’s what makes our guy great,” Yurcich said.

“Look at him. He’s walking through his footwork. Those are the things that make you great.”

Yurcich said coaches and coordinators spend only 2 1/2 hours with players every day; the remaining 21 1/2 is an opportunity to get better.

Watching film and preparing for an opponent adds to a quarterback’s development, but how time is spent away from coaching staff is up to the players.

Saturday’s game against Pittsburgh (1-1) will serve as a testament to Rudolph’s poise and composure in unfamiliar territory. Coach Mike Gundy said having that type of experience at the most important position makes winning road games easier.

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 2017

“In my opinion, that gives you a chance to play well on the road,” Gundy said.

“A guy that you would hope wouldn’t be flustered; that could be as much a reason for anything.”

Rudolph has excelled with a 10-3 road record at OSU (2-0). Two of those losses were at Baylor, one of which was his first career start. Three of OSU’s past four road wins have been by at least 24 points.

“Look in the NFL,” Yurcich said. “The best quarterbacks are the ones that have experience … if you had to hedge your bets a little bit, you can always bet on (Aaron) Rodgers, (Tom) Brady, (Drew) Brees, the guys that have those years of play calls and years of snaps. That’s experience, right? And you can’t replace experience.”

Last season’s matchup against Pitt, a 45-38 victory that came after a two-hour lightning delay, was one of the best of Rudolph’s career.

Rudolph broke OSU records with 540 passing yards, 372 of which came in the first half. Those records still stand, but that game blends in with other stellar Rudolph performances.

Such outings have Rudolph positioned to become an NFL quarterback. When the No. 9 Cowboys travel to Heinz Field – where the Pittsburgh Steelers play – it might not be Rudolph’s final time competing where Ben Roethlisberger plays eight games a season.

The same can’t be said for most other Cowboys, though. Playing inside an NFL stadium could be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, adding to the intrigue

OSU quarterback Mason Rudolph has a career 10-3 road record. as OSU plays its final nonconference game on its schedule.

“When the game day atmosphere isn’t what it usually is, you gotta raise your level of intensity,” Rudolph said. “I think all the guys on offense, the experienced leaders, guys on defense, we create that fire and energy. And then you

just kinda make yourself feel like you’re running out of the tunnel here at Boone Pickens.”

EXPERIENCE ART AT #OKSTATE

Kiki Smith and Paper: the Body, the Muse, and the Spirit exhibition is the third in the New York Project, an exhibition series bringing the work of high-profile New York artists to Oklahoma. It is currently on display at the museum until December 2.

Action Abstraction: Public Art On Campus

This exhibit showcases Smith’s allure to the human body, and more so, the female body. Smith used paper as her medium to create drawings and fascinating sculptures that bring her artwork to life. She has revisited birth, death and regeneration in much of her artwork since the early 1980s.

Displayed across the OSU campus for one year, Action Abstraction presents six monumental bronze sculptures by internationally known artist Bill Barrett.

Exhibition curator Wendy Weitman said Smith uses several viewpoints when creating her artwork.

Widely considered one of today’s foremost sculptors, Barrett’s works transcend the stark aesthetics of minimalism with warmth and humanity.

To see the six pieces and learn more, go to museum.okstate.edu/billbarrett.

“She has considered it from every possible perspective.

Physically, culturally, historically and personally,” Weitman said.

Weitman also described the display as an emotional look into the human spirit.

“This exhibition looks at some of these perspectives. Fragments of the female anatomy, studies of celebrated allegorical women, and finally, ghosts and surrogates of the female figure.”

Smith settled in New York in the mid 1970s and has spent nearly 40 years creating and challenging artwork. She has been dubbed to have one of the most innovative and distinctive voices of her generation, according to the OSU Museum of Art. All exhibitions at The OSU Museum of Art are free and open to the public. As a teaching museum, it also provides several hands-on opportunities to develop students’ knowledge of art and its history.

The museum is located at 720 S. Husband St. in downtown Stillwater and is open Tuesday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Visit museum.okstate.edu to see a list of all museum events.
