Follow-up traffic six minutes after the CPR dispatch confirmed the recovery; an address initially tied to this item belonged to a simultaneous unrelated call
At 2:25 PM Tonawanda PD Dispatch toned a routine BLS run for a 79-year-old female at an address the dispatcher read, through heavy garble, as “49 Cold Rocks in the Village, 111 Teller.” Twenty-six seconds later the same dispatcher re-toned with an unrelated and far more urgent call: “We have a child that was in a pool, fell out, they have him out, not breathing, CPR started”. No street address for the pool call was broadcast in the captured traffic; the address originally printed with this item belonged to the earlier medical call and has been removed.
The re-tone repeated at 2:26 PM — and by 2:31 AM the news had turned: “Text to radio. He is breathing. He's conscious alert. Slow everybody down”, dispatch relayed, and responding units were waved down from their emergency response. [Updated Aug. 9 after review of subsequent radio traffic: the original item ended at the CPR dispatch and carried an address from the adjacent call.]

DEVELOPINGCHILD ABDUCTIONTwo-Year-Old Taken in Rose-Gold Chevy After Mother Is Kicked From Car
BOLO put out on Adam District, echoed on Districts C–E
Just before 11 AM an Adam District radio put the following on the air: “Just wanted to make you aware we had a kidnapping of a two-year-old female child. Mother was in the car with a male. Mother got kicked out of the car and the male took off with the baby in the vehicle. The baby is not the male's baby. They're traveling in a rose gold Chevy bumper”. The dispatcher noted that the abductor is not the child's father and that the vehicle had slashed tires — which, combined with no plate information, is the entire descriptor the district had to work with.
Seconds later, BPD Dists C–E rebroadcast a shortened BOLO on Channel 3 asking every unit to watch for the same rose-gold Chevy. The window closes without a located notice on the air; this remains open at cutoff.
