I know that they only issue Amber Alerts for abduction cases, but adding another push alert for a missing child like they do the silver alerts for seniors seems like it would be helpful for people to keep an eye out. I live in Sullivan County and have a business in Hawkins County and I knew nothing about this until this morning.
I just saw they had to call off the search last night. The weather was nice last night, but the area they are searching is really rough terrain.

Ugh, I don't know what to think. Something is a little weird.
I hope she is found safe

Found the answer.
Sheriff Ronnie Lawson told News 5 Summer Wells' siblings were the last to see her, shortly before 6 p.m. on Tuesday.

We just received an Amber Alert.

We just received an Amber Alert.

I wonder if that means that have evidence that she was abducted or if they are just trying to get word out.

I also wonder if Summer’s hair is buzzed as it is in some pictures, which may make people assume that she is a boy, even with a pink shirt. Or if her hair is cut in a bob, as in some of the other photos.

This just came through on my phone...the alert. I was probably asleep last night. I also live in Sullivan county just adjacent to Summer Wells' quaint little town. the FB has a 2nd page with a structure on it. Is that her home?

New information and growing concern for Summer’s well-being

I wonder the same. TBI’s Twitter says new information led to the Amber Alert.
I am not sure how far she could have gone barefoot on her own.
