UPDATE: Abducted 11-year-old has been found: Police stopped suspect car on Massachusetts Turnpike

SPRINGFIELD – An 11-year-old girl is believed to have been forced into a car and possibly abducted as she was coming home from school Wednesday afternoon.

Police have issued an Amber Alert for the girl, who was last seen at about 1:30 p.m. on Lafayette Street, said Ryan Walsh, police spokesman.

“This is being treated as a possible abduction,” Walsh said.

The “preliminary investigation suggests that a ... male was walking behind [her] and forced her into the back of an older model, dark blue or black Honda, possibly a Civic, with an unknown plate,” said David Procopio, state police spokesman.

The suspect is a man who is either white or Hispanic. The car is believed to have been driven by a white or light-skinned Hispanic woman. State Police changed the original description of the suspect after receiving more information, Procopio said.

Police are asking for anyone who has seen the car - described as an older blue or dark-colored Honda sedan, possibly a Civic, with two doors, dark tinted windows, distinctive after-market rims, a moonroof and no front plate - to immediately call 911. The car is believed to be a 2001 to 2005 model, he said.

More than a dozen police officers have responded and are investigating her disappearance. Massachusetts State Police are assisting Springfield officers in the search for the child and the car.

Anyone who has seen the car or has any information about the whereabouts of the 11-year-old girl or the possible abduction is asked to call 911 immediately. People can also Text-a-Tip anonymously, Walsh said.

Police also released a video that captured her walking from the bus on Tuesday. The adult recorded in the video and the car that drives by is similar to the one involved in the abduction, Walsh said.
