<br /> <p>A video that originated from Snapchat shows a man telling a child to climb down a manhole following a false alarm sent to Hawaii residents, warning them of an incoming missile attack. The emergency notification was sent on Saturday, January 13.</p><p>The notification read, in all capital letters, “Ballistic missile threat inbound to Hawaii. Seek immediate shelter. This is not a drill.” It was a false alarm. According to Hawaii News Now</a>, while it took state and military officials no time to take to social media to quell fears, it took nearly 40 minutes for emergency management to send a false alarm alert.</p><p>“Gov. David Ige and head of Hawaii’s Emergency Management agency, Vern Miyagi, told Hawaii News Now that the false alert was the result of human error — and boiled down to someone pushing the wrong button,” the report said.
