We here at Fugitive Watch have recently signed up for the Wireless Amber Alert service. It is a non profit organization that has teamed up with cell phone companies to notify the public of Amber Alerts for abducted children. You can give your cell phone company the zip code of only the areas you want to be notified of in case of an Amber Alert. The Amber Alert will send you a text message giving you the description of the child, the kidnapper and the kidnapper’s vehicle and license number. If you see the vehicle you can immediately call the police. It is a FREE service. We at Fugitive Watch think it is a good program. You may wish to consider signing up for the service and be another set of eyes to help save a kidnapped child. https://www.wirelessamberalerts.org/index.jsp
