a situation like this is the perfect example of why they don't have Amber Alerts right away and there are pretty strict criteria that needs to be met before an Amber Alert is called.
I used to be like "why don't they just call the Amber Alert to be safe" but I think overusing the system would do more harm than good and when a situation actually arises where a kid is actually abducted then maybe not everyone takes it as serious because they might think the kid isn't actually in danger.
