Alberta's Missing Persons Databank May Go National

Alberta police are working with British Columbia law enforcement agencies to develop a missing persons data bank that is expected to be fully operational before year's end.

Supt. Mike Sekela, of the RCMP's serious crime unit, said the province is working with B.C. police to launch a regional database that will hopefully evolve into a national system.

"This will take a little time because we want to integrate with other police forces in the province, but people are expecting this type of service," he said. "I think it will be an excellent resource for policing."
