U.S. Ambassador to Mexico Anthony Wayne formally recognized Mexican citizens who used the AMBER Alert to safely recover 2 children. The honors were held in Mexico City on November 28, 2011, during an AMBER Alert training session for emergency call takers. The state of San Luis Potosi used the AMBER Alert to find a 16-year-old boy last September, and the states of Morelos and Sonora worked together on an alert which led to the recovery of a 14-year-old girl last August. Last spring, law enforcement officials launched the new National AMBER Alert Protocol of Mexico, which is modeled after the U.S. AMBER Alert System.
