Adults are often considered missing if they are inexplicably absent from their location and a threat to life or limb is assumed. Particularly in cases where there is an acute danger, the police can initiate large-scale search measures. The BKA monitors and coordinates such searches and is responsible for international inquiries. Around 50% of missing person cases are resolved within the first week, but around 3% are missing for more than a year.
