Police searching for man who allegedly abandoned toddler at Oklahoma City apartment complex

OKLAHOMA CITY – Authorities in Oklahoma City are searching for a man who allegedly abandoned a toddler at a local apartment complex earlier this week.

On Wednesday, someone called police saying they saw a man drop off a little boy right along the curb and take off.

Police tell us they checked for any report of a missing child and came up with nothing.

Hours later, a woman called 911.

“A woman [was] saying she had been assaulted by her boyfriend to the point where she was actually unconscious and when she woke up, her small child was gone and also her vehicle,” Sgt. Jennifer Wardlow, with the Oklahoma City Police Department, said.

On Friday, officials announced that 28-year-old Jamelle Thompson allegedly assaulted the child’s mother and left her unconscious.

At that point, they claim Thompson took the 2-year-old boy and dropped him off at a local apartment complex.

Thompson has several warrants out for his arrest, including first-degree rape, kidnapping, domestic by strangulation, domestic assault and battery and larceny of a vehicle.
