I was having a cup of coffee at Ramone’s and it was interesting to see/hear all the cell phones chirping (almost) simultaneously.
Good system, and not abused as I get such alerts only about once/year.
I thought the same! The county tsunami alert test also worked, amazing!
You got a county tsunami alert on your phone? I got the Amber alert, but tsunami.
i know i was at romeos to and i also got that amber alert and we also feel bad and they still haven`t found him.
I’m feeling left out I still haven’t gotten mine on my phone?
I saw it on the emergency alert broadcast on t.v…so sad.
I hope he’s found safe.
Just heard on the scanner that the Amber Alert has been cancelled
I just hope this was an actual abduction and not some sort of custody issue.
It was an unknown abductor, therefore probably not a custody dispute.
Why would you hope that? Sometimes a non-custodial parent is unfit. Sometimes they harm their own children. I am just glad the little guy was found safe.
Glad the family got their child back. But what about that fiend that stole this baby
