TULSA, Okla., July 12 (UPI) -- Police in Tulsa, Okla., say a man was arrested at a local casino after he allegedly left a 7-year-old boy in a pickup truck with open bottles of alcohol.
David Wright, 61, was charged with child endangerment, furnishing alcohol to a minor, public intoxication and resisting arrest, the Tulsa World reported Tuesday.
Casino security officers found the child in a vehicle in the parking lot of the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tulsa and called police, the newspaper said.

He was placed in the custody of the Department of Human Services when the mother could not be located at the time, police said.
