The South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) will conduct a statewide test of the AMBER Alert system on Wednesday, March 25, 2026, between 2:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m. EST.
During this time, an AMBER Alert test message will appear on the SLED website, and the AMBER Alert tone will activate on cell phones within South Carolina.
This test will be a safety exercise, not a real-world incident. The test is part of ongoing safety measures to ensure that new technology integrates into the existing state emergency alert system.
