Where's the Amber Alert?
Police Seeking Immigrants Who Were Kidnapped From Their Texas Home

http://ap.tbo.com/ap/breaking/MGBV5X501BE.html

HOUSTON (AP) - Four men kicked in the front door of a house and kidnapped six illegal immigrants at gunpoint, including a 6-month-old baby, authorities said.


Sheriff's Sgt. James Parker said a search was under way Monday for the immigrants, who recently arrived in the United States.

Parker described the missing as the 6-month-old, wearing a white jumper; her mother and father, who are between 30 and 40 years old; and another couple in their 40s. All were Hispanic.

3. Heard anything on CNN, MSNBC, or Fox about this today?
I haven't heard anything all day about this on cable news.

2. there are certain "requirements" to call
an Amber alert, maybe when when you are kidnapped with your parents it doesn't qualify.
