as all the Hatzolah are together in brooklyn they should drive up in mass to help as much as then can and perhaps avert another tragedy
I don’t know how well these work but they sell things like “The Little Buddy” child tracker. A parent using a computer can track the location of their child at all times.
So a child should have two things. 1. A panic button that makes a very loud and shocking sound to get other people’s attention (or maybe we need a panic button which shouts “Help, I’m in Trouble” etc.) and 2. A child tracker.
Also, there are services that will come to the aid of a person by having them press a button (instead of having to dial a number which takes too long when it’s a real emergency). Maybe our Hatzolah could provide that service for a nominal fee per child/person/business.

B”H, but there is unfortunately too much Chillul Hashem. We can ill afford all this negative publicity.
Its good to see a story with a happy ending
B”H he was found safe. I hope he understands why people were so upset that no one knew where he was!

It is called Spinka Camp but is not. Spinka leases to a different Yeshiva.
What was he doing in Staten Island Mall, instead in camp, where he was supposed to be?
could anyone explain me how you get ‘lost’ from dairyland to staten island? a almost two and a half hour drive (120 miles!) and a 1 day and 9 hour walk!!!????
Hodu Lashem, he is safe.
