Google Street View

Tulsa Police are sorting through the details of the most bizarre death of an infant. Tulsa Police Officer Leland Ashley says an infant was found face down in a mop bucket at the Sandy Park Apartments near 6300 West 11th Street.

The seven-month old was rushed to the St. John Medical Center, but died there this morning.  Other children in that apartment have been turned over to the child welfare unit of the Oklahoma Department of Human Services.

At this point, no arrests have been made
