TULSA, Okla. — Tulsa police say a little boy died after being stabbed by another child.

Police said they got a call from a frantic woman reporting a stabbing near 64th Place and Riverside. The call came in just before midnight Thursday.

The woman called 911 and when police arrived EMSA and the Tulsa Fire Department were on scene performing CPR on the little boy. They took him to the hospital and he died from his injuries.

The 12-year-old is in custody and the Tulsa Police Child Crisis Unit is handling the investigation.
