Metro family without A/C, mother expecting second child soon

OKLAHOMA CITY (KFOR) — A family is left scorching in their northwest Oklahoma City apartment after experiencing air conditioning issues.

Rebekah Riley and her husband moved into Solare Apartments a little over six months ago.

Last week, their A/C stopped working.

“We had to put our mattress in the living room to try and keep cool and then our son sleeps on the couch,” Riley says.

She says the temperatures inside are unbearable, telling News 4 that her thermostat was close to 90 degrees on Wednesday.

Riley is nine months pregnant and has anemia. She’s scheduled to give birth at the end of August.

“I just can’t do anything at all throughout the day. Turning the oven on just makes it even more hot in the apartment. And running our dryer does the same thing,” she adds.

Riley says she’s filled out a service request and called management to fix their unit.

“I’ve been calling, every time they say they would call me back, they never call me back.”
