Introduced Text

Establishes the turquoise alert system in Arizona for missing persons under 65.

The bill amends Arizona law to establish the turquoise alert system, a quick response system for issuing and coordinating alerts following the report of a missing person. The Department of Public Safety will issue a turquoise alert if the missing person is under 65, the investigating agency has used all available local resources, the person is a runaway or has been kidnapped, the person is in danger, and there is information that could assist in their recovery. The alert will be issued regardless of whether the person is a runaway or has been kidnapped if they are a child.
