CLEVELAND, Okla. — The Pawnee County Sheriff's Office says a missing three-year-old is safe and back with his family.
Over 100 deputies and first responders were on hand when the three-year-old and his family reunited. He'd been missing about two hours.
The boy was playing in the front yard of his home in Cleveland and wandered off into the nearby woods. A search party, including the Tulsa Police Department helicopter, was out within 30 minutes. Deputies said eventually he got tired and thirsty and walked to a neighbor's house about a mile east of his house.
