Phone App Helps Locate Missing
HOUSTON – When someone vanishes, time is the enemy. The Laura Recovery Center spends every day searching for missing people. Now, they’re making use of a new phone app to help get vital information out. That app is free, by the way. “Any time a flyer is posted, a person with a smart phone can walk up to it and aim it at our flyer and immediately help us distribute that information,” Bob Smither says.
