The parents of the child, Cole and Jackson, according to Cole's arrest report, were both so "highly intoxicated," they weren't able to give police any information on the whereabouts of the child.
Officers were able to locate a witness who told them that she had picked up Cole around the area of 5700 North Frankfort Avenue. The witness went with the officers to that location and they found the missing infant, still inside the car seat, face-down in the street.
Anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of Clyde Jackson can contact the Tulsa Police Department.
