Default 5-year-old, grandparents disappear from Calgary home

They've put out an Amber Alert for these people.


http://globalnews.ca/news/1425164/5-...-calgary-home/

CALGARY- Police are appealing for help from the public, after a five-year-old boy and his grandparents vanished.

Around 10 a.m. on Monday, police were called by the boy’s mother from a home in the 100 block of 38A Avenue S.W. where the grandparents live. She had shown up to pick up her son, but no one was home.

Police say evidence found in the Parkhill home suggests their disappearance may be suspicious.

“When we went to the address and after speaking with family members, the home was not in the condition it typically would have been left in,” said Kevin Brookwell from the Calgary Police Service.

At first, the part about the house not being in normal condition sounded to me like the grandparents grabbed stuff and took off (kidnapping the kid), but on the 6:00 news, they interviewed a cop, and he said it looked like they left under duress.

Friend of a friend of the parents say that the grandparents are not suspects.

Yeah, they said on the news that the grandparents aren't suspects. They haven't been seen (I hope I have this right) since 10pm last night when the boy's mom dropped him off. She went back this morning at 10am.

I hope that everyone is found safely. As soon as I heard this on the news I had a terrible feeling in my gut. I hope I'm wrong.

My god.. a young one and elders? Hope they're fine. Why in the hell would you mess with kids or elderly ppl?

Don't answer that. I get it. People are screwed.

Thoughts and prayers with the whole family.

I have a hunch the grandparents may be suspects but the cops are saying otherwise to the media so the grandparents guard will be down.

This really is a thread to be goofing around and smiling in while real people are in a constant state of panic, confusion, and despair. You're being a twat.

Mods can ban me if they like.

I'd hope not, nor did I mean any disrespect to the actual, horrible issue.

My apologies if I've detracted from the meaning of this thread.

They very well could be, you've heard of a family tree? Families are quite large and a number of them could be reading this thread along with friends. Not that it matters, some subjects just deserve some respect. Thanks for your ignorant contribution to this thread.

This is ridiculous. You people are f'ing around in a thread that's dead serious. I'd be losing my mind if my kid was missing. Just stop already.
