AMBER Alert: How Can the Community Assist?

  • When it is determined that an AMBER Alert is required, information about the suspect or missing child will be displayed on electronic highway signs, radio, television and cable TV stations.
  • If you see or hear an AMBER Alert, watch for the child, suspect, and/or vehicle described in the Alert.
  • Immediately report any sightings to the police by calling 9-1-1.
  • Provide information on the location, and a description of the victim, suspect, and/or any vehicle involved.

The Ontario AMBER Alert is an excellent example of law enforcement and the media working together with the community to protect the safety of our children.

When an AMBER Alert is issued it will be posted to the O.P.P. website.
