TULSA, Okla. — The Tulsa Police Department is asking for help locating two people after police said they took an SUV with five children inside after a confrontation.

A local business owner said two people were stole a trailer from her business on Sunday near Admiral Place and S. 177th East Ave.

While driving to the business, the woman spotted a truck with her trailer on the back and managed to get them to pull over, police said. The woman confronted the two people until they ran, one running away from the scene while the other jumped into the woman's SUV with her five children inside.

The children ranged in age from one to 16 years old, according to police.

TPD said the woman's 16-year-old daughter hit the person, who was driving, telling them to pull over, which they did. Police said the 16-year-old and two other children got out of the SUV, but two others could not.

Police said the 16-year-old was thrown to the ground and went to the hospital with minor injuries. The SUV with the two remaining children inside was found in a ditch. The SUV and trailer were returned to the woman along with all five children.

Police found the 2006 Chevy Silverado but are still trying to find the two people. If you have any information about the two suspects, call the Tulsa Crime Stoppers at (918) 596-COPS.
