Emergency Alert Notification Call

Did anyone else receive a emergency alert notification call at 12:21am this morning regarding an escaped prisoner or a wanted person that was running loose in the Fairplay area?

Where would I go to find out the information, as I didn't catch the phone call in time to hear what exactly is going on and I don't seem to see any more information anywhere else I know to look.

Thanks.

You should call the Sheriff's dept. and ask about the situation.
Please let us know what you find out.

I received TWO calls from Emergency Alert Notification. I called my neighbor to find out if she had received one. (1st. one) She HAD NOT. She called the Sheriff's number and was told that the call was for the FAIRPLAY area and not us in Elk Creek Highlands. She was apologized to and was told by someone named Sara that this matter would be looked into. At about 12:15 I received the second call stating that the 911 folks sent out the 1st. call as PCSO had been attempting to execute a search warrant and the situation had gone as planned. they said that there was a person on the lose, to all Fairplay residents to lock there doors and bring in their animals. If they saw anything amiss they were to call the 911 dispatch and report it.

We went thru this crap last year where everyone in our area would receive a emergency alert notification call BUT US. When I called the Sheriffs Dept. to report it, They said they were going to test the alert system and then called us back and told us they REALLY saw NO NEED to test it. So MAYBE IT'S TIME TO TEST IT??

Do you have a Qwest phone # (816 or 838)? VOIP phone numbers provided by Skybeam, Vonage etc would not be in the 911 system for a call back.

Mama, I believe you would also complain about them testing the Emergency Alert Notification system and calling you. From your post, I imagine you are one of those people that is always unhappy.

Willys...you guys can be quite the buttheads.

I wonder how long it took the SWAT team commander to drive from Westminster?

Maybe that is why the guy got away!

Maybe they were trying to get one of the (unused, AFAIK) Humvees to start? :Whistle
