Texas and other States are considering Silver Alert systems. An aging population is forcing states to face an issue previously mainly of concern only to organizations such as the Alzheimer Association.
Texas legislators are scheduled to deabte a Silver Alert bill today. The case of 101-year-old Rose Morat, the women mugged on March 4that an apartment building in Queens, may re-enforce the danger the elderly face. A suspect has been arrested by New York City Police.
