TULSA - Tulsa police are taking DNA samples at the Tulsa State Fair this weekend.
Detectives will be at the TPD booth Friday and Saturday sharing information about missing persons' cases.
The goal is to obtain "Family Reference DNA" samples from as many family members of missing persons as possible.
The samples will be taken by a swab inside the mouth.
The TPD booth is located in the upper level of the QuikTrip Center near the west end.
