(154,021 posts)I have been told by editor that law enforcement prefers pics.
And I was bad, I did not use the pic on an alert. I need to learn how to embed them in constant contact messages.
Suffice it to say not even amber alerts for me here anymore. Now, let me go get that story from the paper and put it on FB

(28,876 posts)As the parent of a 2 year old boy myself, this one hit way too close to home.
Amazingly, his own family formed a search party and located him. Apparently, he was stolen right out of the back of his mother's car. Unbelievable.
