Calgary police are using Disney music played from patrol vehicles to locate an 11-year-old boy who is non-verbal, autistic, and has a history of being frightened by strangers.The boy, Parker, was last seen in Calgary’s north end on Thursday afternoon.

His family emphasized that anyone who spots him should not approach him but instead call police immediately, as Parker may not respond to his name and could become frightened by unfamiliar people.The Alberta Emergency Alert system was activated to spread awareness, with police stating that the search remains their highest priority.Investigators confirmed that foul play is not suspected and are relying on public assistance to find Parker.A video shared by police shows a patrol vehicle playing Disney tunes as it searches residential areas, aiming to draw Parker’s attention.The case does not meet the criteria for an Amber Alert, but the provincial government allowed the emergency alert to be issued.

Over 120 volunteers and 30 tips have been received so far, with authorities urging the public to help locate the boy, who is described as shirtless, wearing grey shorts, and black noise-cancelling headphones.

The police and Parker’s family are deeply concerned for his safety and well-being, highlighting the need for patience and caution in the search efforts.
