The FBI’s digital billboard program started as a one-city pilot in Philadelphia in 2007 and exploded into 3,200 locations nationwide today, the Richmond Times-Dispatch reports.

The increase is due to the program’s success, the FBI said.

“We reach a wider audience,” said FBI Special Agent Barbara Woodruff, a spokeswoman for the Newark field office. “We have access to these billboards in times of extreme importance, to include national emergencies, fugitive-related cases and kidnappings.”

The idea is to reach millions of motorists who could help locate dangerous criminals and kidnap victims.

The digital billboards generally feature a photo of a fugitive, the crime and a phone number to call, the Dispatch reported.
