Maryland State Police To Send Amber Alerts To Cellphones

PIKESVILLE, Md. —Maryland State Police said Amber alerts are now being sent to all cellphones designed to receive wireless emergency alerts.

The alerts are used to help find abducted children. State police said they have been instrumental in the safe recovery of 602 children nationwide. Previously, cellphone owners only received alerts if they had visited a website and opted in to the alert system. State police said users can shut off the alerts by changing the notifications settings in their cellphone or contacting their service provider.
