I recieved a text message while at Hattie’s yesterday evening it said:

FWD: Lewiston maine AMBER ALERT: 3 yr old girl taken by a man driving a new silver truck plate 72B381 -keep it going til they catch them!

Naturally I tweeted it to my 100+ followers on twitter and my 700+ friends on facebook, only to discover it was false. According to an article at WMTW the police say it started at around 7:30 pm and is completely fake, there are no missing kids reported in lewiston. One of my contact said that the letter in the middle of the plate number proves it’s fake. Nice call Micah!
