How the Community Can Help
Authorities are urging anyone who saw Hill on or after September 4, or who has any information about his current location, to call the San Antonio Police Department at 210‑207‑7660. The CLEAR Alert system is designed to quickly disseminate critical information to the public when a person’s safety is at risk.
What a CLEAR Alert Means
A CLEAR (Citizen Law Enforcement Alert and Response) Alert is a statewide notification tool used by Texas law‑enforcement agencies to request immediate public assistance. When issued, the alert is broadcast through multiple channels, including local news outlets, social media, and highway signs, to maximize the chances of locating the individual.
Recent Police Activity on the North Side
The North Side has seen a number of public‑safety initiatives in recent months, ranging from traffic safety campaigns to community outreach events. This alert adds to the ongoing effort to keep neighborhoods safe and to involve residents directly in law‑enforcement efforts.
Next Steps
DPS will continue to monitor the situation and coordinate with San Antonio police detectives. If Hill is located, authorities will provide an update to the public. In the meantime, community members are asked to remain vigilant, report any suspicious activity, and share the alert with friends and neighbors.
