(VANCOUVER, WA) - An Amber Alert has been lifted in the state of Washington and surrounding areas for a 10-year old girl who was abducted about 2:45 PM Tuesday afternoon in Vancouver, WA.

A witness said a male suspect grabbed the little girl as she was riding a magenta colored bicycle and forced her into a newer yellow Volkswagen beetle. The witness reportedly saw as the alleged suspect got the little girl`s attention, spoke to her from his car, and then pulled her inside as he sped away through a red light.

The 10-year old Caucasian girl was described as having long blonde hair in a ponytail, about 70 pounds and 4`5" tall, wearing blue spandex pants and a tie-dyed t-shirt.

Vancouver Police say they have received hundreds of calls and so far, no children have been reported missing, causing them to end the alert at this time.
