Why some brewing companies are producing more hop-forward ales and light-bodied lagersThree boys who went missing Wednesday evening were found early the next morning after an intensive search. Parker County Sheriff's deputies were contacted Dec. 18 around 8:30 p.m. that three juveniles had gone missing in the area surrounding Deere Lane in northern Parker County. “We received the report and took immediate action knowing the juveniles were on foot, without cell communications, that nightfall had already set in and temperatures were dropping to concerning levels,” said Authier, adding the description of the juveniles ages 9, 10, and 11, were disseminated to area agencies en masse by “Be On The Look Out" alerts through telecommunications. Several departments responded to the area, including Reno-Briar Fire Department, Tarrant County Sheriff's Office, Texas Department of Public Safety Safety Aviation Unit, Lt./Pilot Lacey and Sgt./TFO Gunnels and troopers, Parker County ESD firefighters and Search One K-9 Units. Parents of the children reported the boys got off of a school bus together and went to the home of one of the boys. They were last seen together on foot, between 5:30 and 6 p.m., further reporting it was unusual for the boys to wander off without returning. Law enforcement officers and emergency personnel met sheriff’s deputies to canvass the neighborhoods, going door-to-door, searching businesses, woods, creeks, property, buildings and surrounding areas. Sheriff’s deputies reported the terrain was rough and did not allow for equipment to continue into the depth of the woods. Tarrant County Sheriff’s Office also lent their drone to cover the area where four-wheelers were unable to continue and Texas DPS launched their helicopter, using infrared technology to canvass the area by air. Authier said without their assistance, the search would have taken much longer, and resources could have very well been depleted. He also attributed the collective response from surrounding agencies to the safe recovery of the juveniles within hours. “The helicopter pilot and crew relayed constant radio communications with the drone, K-9 unit and ground team,” said Authier. “We are pleased to state the boys, although cold and [with] sustained minor scratches from walking through areas filled with brush, were located at 3:06 a.m., in the 1000 block of South Reno Road, otherwise in good health.” The boys told law enforcement officers they were exploring a nearby creek and were unfamiliar with the wooded area when they became lost, but they kept together. Once the pilot spotted the boys with his on-board FLIR (Forward Looking Infrared) system, he directed sheriff’s deputies to their location through the brush via radio communications. Emergency medical personnel also evaluated the juveniles, who were released to their parents. “We would like to thank every agency, telecommunicator and team member who responded to assist in the search,” said Authier. “Multi-agency cooperative response and effort are required, particularly in search-and-rescue missions which are of such vital standing.” Texas DPS Capt. Saben Emery also commended the law enforcement officers and first responders involved in the search efforts of the juveniles. “There’s no greater reward in this job than finding missing children,” he said in an e-mail to the sheriff's office. “And with temperatures near freezing, minutes matter. Your expert ability to use the onboard equipment is what brought these kids home safe.Why some brewing companies are producing more hop-forward ales and light-bodied lagers
