The Highway Patrol is now looking for answers after sending out an AMBER Alert last week and people were not able to open the link because of new restrictions on Twitter. Missouri State Highway Patrol (MSHP) Public Information Director Captain John Hotz said these changes to the social media site came without any advance notice.
“That was all news to us,” Hotz said. “There wasn’t anything sent to us in advance, so we didn’t really know about it until we started seeing some comments.”
