The Moore Police Department is asking for the public’s help identifying a young child who was found alone early Saturday morning with a dog near the Curve Apartments.

Officers say the child was discovered around 6:45 a.m. near Southwest 14th Street and Dreessen Drive. He appears to be between 2 and 3 years old, is non-verbal, and was not accompanied by any adult.

Police say the child was with a dog that was closely attached to him. Both the child and the dog were unharmed and are currently safe in police care.

Photos released by Moore police show the child wearing a red dinosaur tank top and a diaper, and the dog, a spotted, short-haired breed, carrying a green plush toy.

Anyone who recognizes the child or has information that may help locate his family is urged to call the Moore Police Department immediately at 405-793-5139.
