Amber alert, or no?

Fox 6 News in Milwaukee is running a continual ticker right now on an Amber Alert. A Kendale Coats (black, 5'6, 200 lbs, 40, pierced nose, left ear, goatee) took his daughter after a domestic dispute and had threatened to kill himself. When you head over to Amber Alert Wisconsin, there is nothing up on this case. In fact, at 7:45, it says "There are no active alerts at this time!" What's with the lag time?

For up to date information on this Amber Alert, go to Fox 6 News. This is the current text of the alert:
