Investigation Continues Into Hit-And-Run Death Of Child In DHS Custody

We're learning new details about the 11-year-old boy who was hit and killed while trying to cross Interstate 44 in west Tulsa on Sunday.

The Oklahoma Highway Patrol said Christopher Seaton was with another boy when he jumped over a concrete barrier and was hit by three vehicles.

The 14-year-old boy who was with Seaton wasn't hurt.

DHS tells News On 6 both boys were residents of a group home near there, called Realations Community Services, which houses children with behavioral or emotional needs, such as autism, or other developmental disabilities.

The agency has launched its own investigation into the accident. Seaton had been in DHS custody since 2009, and he'd been at the home since 2012.

Troopers are still looking for a pick up truck that left the scene.
