TAKEN FROM POST #230 put together by RubyRed - some of the best tips I've ever seen the FBI give out - worth reading!
Quote:
The Weld County Sheriff's Office is also searching for Wilson and provides the
following tips for anyone who wants to help in the search:
Quote:
Check and look along road sides, back roads, fields, dump areas that you may know about in the county or in the towns or areas you drive to or live near. These may be areas that you routinely drive, walk, run, jog, etc.
Check any ditches or areas that are typically hard to see when driving by at high speeds. Other potential areas to check are under bridges, in abandoned barns or structures that are not normally occupied, abandoned vehicles, etc.
Quote:
If you
notice a suspicious odor in an area, or see activities in or around abandoned homes or property; if you happen to
see circling birds or gathering predators, like coyotes in or around an area, check it out to see if it is safe, or contact the local law enforcement agency near you to have it checked out.
Quote:
If you own property that is not currently occupied, check it out to make sure it is still secure and that everything inside is in order and as you expect it to be. If you know your neighbor is not home and you have permission to go on their property, check for any broken windows, doors, or suspicious activity or things that may appear out of place to you.
Quote:
I
f you live in a rural area and know your neighbors are gone for extended periods of time, drive by those areas and make note of any unusual cars, vehicles or things that appear out of place and are not consistent with what you are familiar with.
Quote:
If you l
ive near an empty home or building, watch for any suspicious activity or unusual people or vehicles in or around the structure that are not normally there.
Quote:
Do NOT go in any buildings or homes that you do not own or trespass on private property, to search any areas.
Quote:
If you see or suspect anything suspicious, do not attempt to pick it up, touch it or contaminate the immediate surrounding areas. If you leave the area before authorities arrive try to leave the same way you came in so other potential items are not disturbed or contaminated.
