CALGARY \u2013 Roughly 120 trained volunteers and police with dogs and on bikes are searching in Calgary today for a missing 11-year-old boy who is non-verbal and autistic.<\/p>\n

Calgary police say the search for Parker will also see his favourite Disney songs being played from cars patrolling streets.<\/p>\n

His family has said those who spot him should not approach him, and instead call police immediately because he can be frightened of strangers.<\/p>\n

Parker was last seen on Thursday afternoon at a home in Calgary\u2019s north end and police have said foul play is not a factor in his case.<\/p>\n

He was shirtless, wearing grey shorts and black noise-cancelling headphones.<\/p>\n

An Amber Alert was issued in Parker\u2019s search Saturday afternoon and police say they have received 90 tips on his whereabouts.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs the investigation progresses, search efforts are becoming increasingly focused on areas connected to Parker\u2019s last known movements and reported sightings,\u201d police said Sunday.<\/p>\n

Police said hundreds of officers have knocked on doors, canvased streets and continue to review hours of video footage.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe remain grateful for the tremendous community support we have received.\u201d<\/p>\n
