Amber Alert for 11-month-old canceled

Site Search

Raleigh, N.C. — North Carolina authorities have canceled an Amber Alert for an 11-month-old girl who was reported missing from York County, S.C.

The alert was issued about 12:45 p.m. Wednesday for Macey Rae Sinclaire, who was last seen in the Catawba/Leslie area of Rock Hill, S.C. WBTV, a CBS affiliate in Charlotte, said the child was found unharmed in Lake Wateree, S.C., about an hour from where she was last seen.

Authorities had also been looking for the girl's father, Casey Sinclaire, 27, who they said abducted her, but it was not immediately clear whether he had been detained.

He is being charged with a count of use of a vehicle without owner's permission; and there might be further charges, authorities said. The case is still under investigation.

No further descriptions about the case were immediately available.

I can't remember a recent Amber Alert that was not cancelled. And by cancelled, I do not mean after whatever dangerous circumstance was stopped by the authorities. Seems all of them lately have just been errors.

I also think the fact that they stopped putting info up on the highway boards is a boneheaded move. Just saying call 511 does nothign for most people as they will not call - and I assume if they did, it would probably cause an overload. Just stick the info about the vehicle back up like they used to do.

"once again just another waste of the public's time by interrupting my shows!!!"

Nice!! Here is someone with their priorities in order. I'll wager that if you have kids that they ran off to live with wolves.

The Amber Alert system is so annoying that I mute the TV if it happens while I am watching. Maybe there is a better way to reach the public. I do agree it is becoming like the milk cartons, very over used.

The Amber Alert system has become a complete joke.

IT's unfortunate that the "Amber Alert" and the "Silver Alert" program is starting to be like the milk carton pictures...Let's see if we can't find some way to keep it from being that obscure, and not noticed!
