| Amber alert
The RCMP have issued an Amber Alert for a 3-year-old boy who disappeared from his Sparwood, British Columbia home overnight.
Kienan Hebert was last seen when his family put him to bed on Tuesday evening. The toddler was reported missing at 8:30 a.m. Wednesday morning, prompting police to begin searching the community, about 600 kilometres east of Vancouver, with the aid of helicopters and sniffer dogs.
The Mounties say they're looking for 46-year-old Randall Hopley and a 1987 brown Toyota Camry with B.C. licence plate 098RAL.
Kienan is described as Caucasian with red hair. RCMP said he had been wearing "Scooby Doo" boxer shorts and may have been carrying up to three blankets.
Police say that Kienan and Hopley are of no relation.
In an interview, B.C. RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Dan Moskaluk said Kienan has a history of sleepwalking, "but in past incidents, he's never exited the house."
Investigators have been speaking to the boy's family and making inquiries in the local community, Moskaluk said.
Anyone with information on Hebert's whereabouts is asked to call the Elk Valley RCMP at 250-425-6233. Posted via RS Mobile

Does anyone else find it hard to take the Amber Alerts on the radio seriously? The narrator sounds like the guy who does commercials for Burger King or something.

edit: yep, Hopley lives in the same area and has a history of break-ins and was accused of trying to kidnap a child but lack of evidence threw that case out Quote:
Moskaluk says Hopley does not know the child missing from Sparwood, and he won't or can't say why police believe the three-year-old might be with him.

| AMBER ALERT: Suspected abductor of three-year-old Kienan Hebert has vast criminal record Quote:
The boy told his foster mother Hopley had broken into the home and on two occasions, tried to push the lad out of his bedroom window.
“Hopley claimed he tried to abduct the boy from foster care and transfer him to his biological parents for $2,800,” said the report.

the boy was also special needs so the case was thrown out
Also they're having a Press Conference right now on the news
the RCMP is saying that they don't know if Hopley is a suspect they can't find him is all and if he hears of these alerts they would like him to come forward and speak with the RCMP
so yeah they've accused him simply on his history
However this missing boy is also prone to Sleep Walking (however you would think he would have been found now if that was the case)

Did the suspect break anything to get inside the house? or was the front door open when they found out the kid was gone? Maybe the answers are in the news and I'll just have to read it again.

"Can't find the suspect" is a pretty good reason. If he is registered then he likely has conditions that restrict his movements/travel. The reason they can't find him is he's probably violated those conditions, and coupled with the boys dissapearance makes him a prime suspect. Posted via RS Mobile |

I just heard that Alberta has yet to issue an Amber Alert...
Could be wrong, but if it is true...that is pretty stupid considering how close Sparwood is to the Alberta border...
so sad...

so sad... | I don't know, I have a friend in Sask who posted the amber alert on her facebook. I can't imagine Sask doing it and not Alberta.
