Previously, I was asked to speak to journalism students at Troy University and I wish I had this example when asked for tips but always try to fact check or get several sources confirming the same info if you can. Unfortunately, this story spread nationwide with incorrect info.

[Alabama Law Enforcement Agency @ALEAprotects]

On Monday, July 3, a news story was shared regarding “first responders warning against a deadly boating TikTok trend after recent drownings” in Alabama. However, please be advised the information released to the news outlet was incorrect.

Since the most recent AMBER Alert was issued in the state of Alabama, many have asked about the criteria for an AMBER Alert and the process of issuing a statewide alert.
