Sec. 2. The law enforcement agency shall prepare the report required by section 1 of this chapter as soon as practicable, but not later than five (5) hours after the law enforcement agency received the notification about a missing child. However, a law enforcement agency is not required to prepare the report required by section 1 of this chapter earlier than twenty-four (24) hours after the law enforcement agency received the notification about a missing child if: (1) the law enforcement agency received a previous, unrelated notification that the child was missing; and (2) the law enforcement agency has reason to believe that the child is missing because the child has committed a delinquent act under IC 31-37-2-2 .
