Kansas Amber Alert

Officials in the state of Kansas are stepping up their awareness program for the Amber Alert system. The campaign, consisting of two radio ads and two television spots, aims to remind people about the existence of the Amber Alert program and also the wireless alert system.

"It is important the public know and understand the criteria for an AMBER Alert to be issued," [Kansas Attorney General Steve] Six said. "These public service announcements will help Kansans remember that law enforcement will only issue AMBER Alerts when they believe the public can help locate a child under 18 who is believed to have been abducted and in serious danger."
