Free wireless AMBER Alerts
Bad Dad Radio has some information on getting alerts from the AMBER (America’s Missing: Broadcast Emergency Response) System free to your wireless phone.
“…a state-wide alert is issued when an abducted child, age 17 years or younger, is reported to a local law enforcement agency. By quickly distributing information to the public, citizens may be able to report critical information to local law enforcement.”
I was not aware that this wireless service existed, but it sounds like a great method for helping to locate missing children seeing as how just about everyone in the world has a cell phone with them at all times.
Amber Alert works.
I am a 911 Police and Fire dispatcher, and was working when the person called in to report seeing THIS GUY (they said he looked like the person from the amber alert)
Here is a more details on the story.
