UPDATE - Amber Alert issued for child and father

Houston police say a missing child whose mother was found dead has been found safe in Arkansas where his father has been discovered dead of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.

A Texas-wide Amber Alert had been issued for 14-month-old Tyemetheus Pack after his mother, Angel Jackson, was found dead earlier Tuesday in Houston. The 26-year-old woman last was seen on Christmas Eve and had texted a message that she'd been shot.

The child's father, Tumetheus Pack, believed about 40, had been sought by police as a person of interest.

Houston homicide investigator Paul Vela says Pack and boy were found near Prescott, Arkansas, and accompanied by two other children and a woman. He provided no other details.

Prescott is about 300 miles northeast of Houston.
