I got this (failed – didn’t show any info) through text at 11:16pm (23:16). Thank you for sharing this report. The report states ‘at about 5:30pm’ which is an approximation (so it could have happened at 1pm?). Depending upon how fast they’re traveling and what direction they were last seen going, which important to know but not included, they could be in Quebec or Michigan or Vermont or close to Maryland by now. Which way did they go?
Lack of info results in loss.
And… = whoever gave this info sucks.
This doesn’t help someone abducted. It doesn’t help to not know some background either.
Yellow Journalism defined.
No thanks.
