Very few states conduct any after action reviews of emergency alerts (of
any color -- amber, silver, blue, camao, aqua, etc.).
The subject of the Silver Alert was found less than 1 hour later,
approximately 53 miles away west of Fargo. Because the Silver alert was
jurisdiction based, rather than geographic based (not a circle/polygon),
the entire state of North Dakota was alerted but no neighboring states
such as nearby Minnesota or South Dakota.
In this case, the subject drove in a straight line, west in North Dakota.
If the subject had driven in almost any other direction, they would have
been in a different jurisdiction with no silver alert.
