Hannah Anderson and her brother, Ethan, were last seen Aug. 3, and are believed to have been abducted by James Lee DiMaggio.

DiMaggio is suspected of killing the children's mother, 42-year-old Christina Anderson.

Her body was found in a burned house along with the remains of a child. Authorities said it could take days for DNA testing to determine if the child is Ethan.

The suspect is reportedly driving a blue 2013 Nissan Versa and was possibly seen near Lakeview in southern Oregon. It is believed he is heading to Texas or Canada.

Anyone who sees this vehicle in Oregon should call 911 or the Oregon State Police at 1-866-5AMBER5.
