AMBER Alerts are distributed via commercial radio stations, satellite radio, television stations, and cable TV by the Emergency Alert System and NOAA Weather Radio for child abductions only! Children with an Autism Spectrum Disorder are NOT included in the criteria for issuing an Amber Alert. This really needs to change.
The body of Adam Benhamama — a three-year-old with a mild form of autism who has been missing since April in Laval, Que. — has been found in the Mille-Îles River on the north side of the city near Terrebonne.
