Amber Alerts have been issued for Hannah Anderson since her mother's death after the suspected kidnapper's vehicle -a blue 2012 Nissan Versa-was believed to be spotted in Northern California, NBC News reported on Thursday.
The car reportedly had been reportedly heading near the Oregon border on Highway 395 though it still was not clear whether suspect James Lee DiMaggio or either of the two children, Hannah or Ethan were inside.
The burned body of Hannah's mother, 44-year-old Christina Anderson was discovered by authorities in log-cabin home in Boulevard California. Authorities also believe her son Ethan may have also been killed there as well, no details were revealed.
DiMaggio had owned the house, which was burned down, authorities said.
"We all love you very much. If you have a chance, you take it. You run. You'll be found," Brett Anderson, Hannah's father said. A neighbor told The Associated Press that the Andersons recently separated.
A nationwide manhunt has been underway for the last couple of days. Authorities fear DiMaggio could be headed to Texas or Canada. The FBI is in full participation with the investigation.
"We've received some information that either Texas or Canada may have been the destination he was heading to. Realistically, we don't know where they're going," San Diego County Sheriff's Department Lt. Glenn Giannantonio said.
Hannah is described as white, 5 feet 7 inches, 115 pounds, with blond hair, blue eyes, a belly-button ring, nose stud and pierced ears. She is a gymnast on her high school team, NBC News reported.
DiMaggio reportedly shaved off his mustache and beard.
Even though Ethan Anderson is believed to may have been killed already, a "Help Find Hannah and Ethan Anderson" Facebook page has been set up.
