Tulsa police confirmed Wednesday they have found a second body in the case of two missing children.

Police said the body of a young boy was found around 5 p.m. in Bird Creek at 46th Street North.

Police said the first body found in the Verdigris River late Tuesday night is a young female.

They also said all signs point to the two bodies being Miracle and Tony Crook.

Late Tuesday night, May 26, Wagoner and Muskogee County Emergency Management recovered a child's body from the Verdigris River.

Officials said they are working closely with the agencies, including Tulsa police, to determine the victim's identity, since there is a possibility that this is related to the two children missing here in Tulsa.

Tulsa Police Department made the following post on their Facebook page:

Oklahoma Highway Patrol says around 7:40 p.m. on Tuesday night, a fisherman saw a body floating in the Arkansas River.
