$20K Reward Offered In Case Of Kidnapped NC Teen

LUMBERTON, NC — One week after a 13-year-old girl was kidnapped from outside her home in Lumberton, North Carolina, investigators continue to search for leads related to her disappearance as a $20,000 reward is being offered for information.

An Amber Alert was issued Nov. 5 morning for Hania Noelia Aguilar, 13, after investigators say she was abducted from the Rosewood Mobile Home Park in Lumberton by a man driving a stolen 2002 Ford Expedition. According to authorities, the abductor was wearing a yellow bandana around his face and was driving a green 2002 Ford Expedition with SC tags NWS984, peeling hood paint and a Clemson sticker in the back window.

Several days later, the vehicle was located in Lumberton.

Last week, officers set up roadblocks near her home, where North Carolina State Highway Patrol officers stopped motorists and showed them her photo in order to identify people who travel that route daily and who may have seen something, the FBI said.

While investigators have been tight lipped about evidence collected so far in the search, the FBI Charlotte field office said Saturday that the North Carolina State Highway Patrol helicopter “flew evidence straight to Quantico so it could be immediately processed and analysed” by the FBI.

Aguilar is described as 5-foot tall, and weighs 125 pounds. She has long black hair, brown eyes and braces, and was wearing a blue shirt with flowers and blue jeans.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Lumberton Police Department at 910-671-3845, or 911.
