This just went off on my phone.

What is a blue alert?  2nd level aircraft or storm warning?

Is there something going on?

Was likely going to end human depravity and poverty and a good boy who didn't do nothing according to his mother.

Yeah , I got the alert like 15-20 minutes ago too. No clue what a blue alert is

Got the alert all the way up in Dallas. Must be statewide.

In Dallas it seems that showing someone's face on TV and a $1000 reward has the phone calls rolling in.

Same. Guess it's a new alert for when a LEO gets killed.

So Acevedo's solution to officer killings is to put out an unlabeled APB in DFW for a shithead that killed a cop in HTown?

K...

Prayers for the officer & his family, but this is silly.  I know that I won't get a state-wide alert for my killer.
