Mar. 25—The reserve officer from Washington, Oklahoma, has been put on administrative leave following felony charges.

Tyler Ruiz, 32, of Moore, was charged in Payne County with using electronic equipment for lewd or lascivious purposes.

The victim alleged she found a camera hidden in a phone charger that was allegedly used by Ruiz. She alleged he said he put the camera there to catch her cheating on him.

Ruiz had an arrest warrant with a bond of $20,000 issued, and he has since posted bond.

According to the Oklahoma State Court Network website, there was not an appearance date written on the bond for Ruiz.

Bond was posted Monday, and his next court appearance is Thursday afternoon.

It is unclear if he will be at this court appearance.

  • North Korea fires two ballistic missiles in challenge to Biden's administration

    North Korea launched two ballistic missiles from its east coast early on Thursday, the first such launches in nearly a year and widely interpreted as Pyongyang’s first challenge to the new administration of US President Joe Biden. The US military tracked the weapons immediately after launch and is presently analysing the data to determine the type of missiles that were fired and their range. Under the terms of United Nations resolutions, North Korea is banned from firing ballistic missiles. The Japanese government, which convened an emergency meeting of its National Security Council, announced that the weapons fell outside its territorial waters in the Sea of Japan. Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga said the launches threaten "peace and safety in Japan and the region," and that Tokyo will closely coordinate with Washington and Seoul on the North's testing activities. South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff said the two short-range missiles were fired at around 7:06 a.m. and 7:25 a.m. from an area on the North's eastern coast and flew 279 miles on an apogee of 37 miles before landing in the sea. It said South Korea's military has stepped up monitoring in case of "further provocations" from the North.

  • Queen’s Tenth Great-Grandchild Born on the Bathroom Floor

    Alan Crowhurst/Getty ImagesQueen Elizabeth’s tenth great-grandchild was born Sunday—on the bathroom floor.Princess Anne’s daughter, Zara Tindall, and her husband, the former England rugby player Mike, had not been planning a home birth but were unable to make it in time to the hospital when the baby, a boy who is 22nd in line to the throne, arrived with a minimum of pomp and circumstance.The unusually informal circumstances of the latest royal birth were disclosed by Mike Tindall on the sports podcast The Good, The Bad and The Rugby.Mike said that after watching rugby matches all weekend: “Sunday got even better because a little baby boy arrived at my house.”As his co-hosts showered him with congratulations, Tindall said he was feeling “brilliant” after the birth at 6 p.m. Sunday.At the time the podcast was recorded, the couple had not chosen a name, with Tindall saying, “We always struggle with that, we have never picked one before they arrive.” However, a spokesperson for the couple subsequently said Wednesday, “Zara and Mike Tindall are happy to announce the birth of their third child, Lucas Philip Tindall.” The baby’s second name is a tribute to Prince Philip, who is due to turn 100 in June. He will have no title as Princess Anne’s children were not given “HRH” styling at her request to enable them to lead more normal lives.A Buckingham Palace spokesman said, “The queen and the Duke of Edinburgh are delighted with the news and look forward to meeting their 10th great-grandchild when circumstances allow.”Asked if the baby was “bonny,” Tindall said he weighed eight pounds four ounces and arrived “very quickly.”“We didn’t make it to hospital. On the bathroom floor,” he said.Asked if he was hands-on at the birth, Tindall revealed that a friend of Zara’s who had been present at the birth of the couple’s previous children was on hand again.“She was there and recognized that we wouldn’t have got to hospital in time, so yeah, it was running to the gym, get a mat, get into the bathroom, get the mat on the floor, towels down, brace, brace, brace.”Tindall added, “Fortunately the midwife who was going to meet us at the hospital wasn’t that far away so she drove up, and got there just as we’d assumed the position. The second midwife arrived just after the head had arrived!”Mike said, “As every man would say, she was a warrior, they always are, we can never judge a woman in terms of what they have to go through in childbirth. She was back up, we went for a walk this morning with him and it’s all good.”Tindall said he cut the cord: “I was literally like, ‘Snip. Snip-snip. I got a boy, I’m out of here.’Tindall added, “The best thing about being at home was, as soon as he’s wrapped up, skin on skin, [we went] straight downstairs, TV room, golf on, and I’m like, ‘This is what you and me are doing.’”He said he also watched a vintage rugby game from 1996 with his newborn son.“The training has begun already, twelve hours in,” his co-host joked.Read more at The Daily Beast.Get our top stories in your inbox every day.
