MO HB419

Requires the Amber Alert System Oversight Committee to adopt criteria and procedures by January 1, 2016 to expand the system to include peace officer safety alerts

Peace officer safety alerts would be issued for locating and identifying any person who has assaulted or otherwise injured a licensed peace officer and fled the scene

Amends Section 210.1014, RSMo, by adding a new subsection specifically mandating the peace officer alert expansion

Existing committee structure and membership (10 members including law enforcement, broadcasters, and state agency representatives) remains unchanged

Committee retains authority to expand alerts for homeland security, criminal acts, health emergencies, and other imminent public dangers
