A "Missing Person" refers to an individual whose whereabouts are unknown and who has not been seen or heard from for an extended period. This situation can arise due to various reasons, including voluntary disappearance, abduction, or accidents. Law enforcement agencies often become involved to locate the individual and ensure their safety. When someone is reported as a missing person, authorities typically gather information about the individual's last known location, habits, and relationships. They may issue alerts, such as Amber Alerts for children, and utilize resources like search teams and public appeals to aid in the search efforts.
