This is the criteria for Florida--some states have different variations.
http://www.fdle.state.fl.us/amberplan/activation_process.html
To activate the AMBER alert the following five (5) criteria must be met.Steps For Activation
The child must be under 18 years of age. There must be a clear indication of an abduction. The law enforcement agency's investigation must conclude that the child's life is in danger. There must be a detailed description of child and/or abductor/vehicle to broadcast to the public (photo when available). The activation must be recommended by the local law enforcement agency of jurisdiction.
The Amber alert can only be activated by law enforcement.
Thank you for that info
