Guest guest Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 I just checked with the local CBS station and found this... http://www.local6.com/news/7401483/detail.html Got to go cry now, lvchefmel <lvchefmel@...> wrote: Just checked our local NBC and ABC and they both have it on their front page online. The link is for the local NBC station, they have a picture. I am emailing the stations asking them to include information about him being autistic. I just fear someone seeing this child and not being inclined to help due to him maybe being combative or non-verbal...I just think this information would be helpful. http://www.wesh.com/news/7394690/detail.html Asked them to tell the parents we were praying for them, will post any information I see on the news if you would like. lvchefmel <lvchefmel@...> wrote: I will turn on the news here and see if it made it on the news here. Greenacres is really close to West Palm Beach so hopefully it will make the news there. Wonder if it would help to forward this to their local stations. I am near Orlando but will send it to my local stations. What a nightmare...and my husband wonders why I am not crazy about letting our 6 year old ASD son and our 3 1/2 year old NT son play in our yard without me being out there. They amazingly will not leave our yard at all and we have an acre in a nice area a little ways out. It can happen anywhere and there is a registered sex offender (child offender at that) living in our neighborhood. When I get my huge German Shephard they can play without me worring! bizzymama@... wrote: Here's some info that i just found: BellSouth AMBER Alert Status Page The goal of the AMBER (America's Missing: Broadcast Emergency Response) Alert is to instantly gather the entire community to assist in the search for and safe return of the child.
