‼️🚨ALERT CALGARY❤️‼️🔎 UPDATE #3: Missing Child – Parker 🔍

Search efforts continue as police and trained volunteers work around the clock to locate Parker. Parker went missing at 11 am yesterday. He has been missing for over 24 hours and we need to help get him located before dark falls again!!!

Specialized units, including the Air Support Unit, Canine Unit, Mounted Patrol Team, Mountain Bike Unit, ground search teams, and partner agencies, remain actively searching throughout northwest Calgary.

EVERY PERSON IN CALGARY PLEASE-->

* Thoroughly check your own property, including garages, pools, RVs, sheds, backyards, under decks, and anywhere a child may have sought shelter.
* If you are searching, remain in public areas only. Please do not enter private property without permission.
* Do not interfere with active police or volunteer search operations.

Parker’s family has expressed their heartfelt gratitude for the incredible support from the community and respectfully asks for privacy while the search continues.

If you have any information, no matter how small it may seem, please contact:
☎️ Calgary Police Service: 403-266-1234
🛑 Calgary Crime Stoppers (anonymous tips)
📞 Missing Children Society of Canada: 1-800-661-6160

🙏 Please continue to share Parker’s photo and information. Every share expands the reach, and someone may recognize something that helps bring him home safely.
