A Red Notice is a request to law enforcement worldwide to locate and provisionally arrest a person pending extradition, surrender, or similar legal action. It contains two main types of information:

1. Information to identify the wanted person, such as their name, date of birth, nationality, hair and eye colour, photographs and fingerprints if available.
2. Information related to the crime they are wanted for, which can typically be murder, rape, child abuse or armed robbery.

Red Notices are published by INTERPOL at the request of a member country, and must comply with INTERPOL’s Constitution and Rules. A Red Notice is not an international arrest warrant. There are currently approximately 66,370 valid Red Notices, of which some 7,669 are public.

The FBI's most-wanted list is a list of the most dangerous fugitives. The list was founded in 1950 when a reporter asked the Bureau for the names and descriptions of the "toughest guys" they would like to capture. According to the FBI's website, a total of 525 fugitives have been on the "Ten Most Wanted Fugitives" list, and 490 have been apprehended or located. Generally, individuals are only removed from the list if they are captured, die, or if the charges against them are dropped. [Phoebe的朋友上过榜]
