Time for preparing report
Sec. 2. The law enforcement agency shall prepare the report
required by section 1 of this chapter as soon as practicable, but not
later than five (5) hours after the law enforcement agency received
the notification about a missing child. However, a law enforcement
agency is not required to prepare the report required by section 1 of
this chapter earlier than twenty-four (24) hours after the law
enforcement agency received the notification about a missing child
if:
(1) the law enforcement agency received a previous, unrelated
notification that the child was missing; and
(2) the law enforcement agency has reason to believe that the
child is missing because the child has committed a delinquent
act under IC 31-37-2-2.
As added by P.L.1-1997, SEC.19.
