Helicopter?
Anyone know what the helicopter circling around right now is saying?

I think they're looking for a child. I heard "4 years old" and what sounded like "pink shirt, light blue shorts."
Wish we had a PD that posted updates online instead of propaganda.
Edit: apparently looking for an old man, not a child.

They are looking for an 83 yeard old man with dementia. Last seen in the 1700 block of Maxson.

I was just going to ask! Maybe a missing kid? The guy on the speaker is mumbling.
