An Amber Alert has been canceled after two abducted California children were found unharmed. The children were left in a car with the ngine running while their father went into a cleaning business. The car was stolen with the children in it.
The police found the children because of a tip they received from someone who saw the Amber Alert.

I'm glad they were found.
Thanks, JoAnn. I'm sorry I didn't respond to your comment yesterday regarding this Amber Alert. I was having computer problems.
No worries Bob. Hope your computer is working ok today.
It seems to be.
Thanks Bob!
Thank you for checking on these Amber Alerts, Janet. It was because of the Amber Alert system these children were found so soon.
I am so glad they are safe. What kind of idiot steals a car - especially one with kids in it? Sheeesh.
Now he faces kidnapping charges on top of grand theft auto.
Sigh of relief.
My sentiments exactly, Shannon.
Thank goodness they are safe.
Thanks, Kat.
Wow, Amber alerts DO work :-) So happy the kids were found!
Although many on Gather dispute the effectiveness of Amber Alerts, they do work.
I am so glad they are alright. Thanks Bob
You're welcome, Deloris.
Just so you know, my son went missing in 1986, for three years. (He was seven.) I will always read your amber alert posts, and would ask anyone to do the same.
Thank you, Julie. It really bothered me when many people on Gather said that this was not a forum for Amber Alerts.
