[QUOTE="NationalMatch, post: 4095669, member: 48586"] Tulsa attorney Ronald Durbin announced he's running for mayor outside of the Tulsa County Courthouse on Aug. 16. He was at the courthouse before a hearing with the City of Tulsa [URL='https://www.kjrh.com/news/local-news/lawsuit-alleges-mayor-held-private-meetings-about-improve-our-tulsa']regarding a lawsuit accusing current Mayor GT Bynum[/URL]of violating the Open Meetings Act and holding private meetings with city councilors. Durbin went on to say that given the alleged corruption within the city, he will be joining the race for mayor. "I'm here today to now officially announce that I am throwing my hat into the ring for mayor of the City of Tulsa," he said. "I'll be filing to run for mayor of the City of Tulsa, and look, do I have any expectations of winning? No, but do you know what? We are going to hold every single person that is running for that office accountable." Moments after Durbin made this announcement, he headed into the courthouse where he was stopped and arrested by Tulsa County deputies on a warrant for assault and battery against a security officer in April. Durbin strongly denies the accusations against him and claims the security officer put his hands on him first. 2 News is working to get the security camera footage from the incident to verify these claims independently. Several deputies assisted in the arrest of Durbin and he can be seen taken to the ground. He was taken to the hospital for evaluation. The Tulsa County Sheriff's Office said was medically cleared and booked into the Tulsa County Jail.
