I'm sorry,...I don't understand. Is this someone in your family? I live in Houston, and we have Amber Alerts every week..and usually the children are taken by the non-custodial parent, or a girl running away with a boyfriend. I hope this is not a child within your family circle.
No Nancy thankfully it is not someone in my family. I knew we had several members in Texas, so I thought it might be a good thing to post. Imagine if one of us spotted the missing child!
FYI - the amber alert has been cancelled. For whatever reason, the girl left willingly with him; the Austin PD believes the girl and the man are in Mexico and are trying to work with Mexican authorities to apprehend him.
