OKLAHOMA CITY (CBS/AP) Aja Daniell Johnson, a 7-year-old whose mother was found dead in Oklahoma, is missing, and police believe her mother's killer has taken her.

Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation spokeswoman Jessica Brown said Monday that the missing 7-year-old girl is believed to be with ex-convict Lester Hobbs and they have issued an Amber Alert for little Aja Daniell Johnson.

Brown says Lester Hobbs is the estranged husband of Tonya Hobbs, whose body was discovered inside a recreational vehicle late Sunday in Geronimo, about 100 miles south of Oklahoma City. Hobbs is wanted for questioning in her death.

Brown says the last time Lester Hobbs and the girl were seen was Saturday evening.

Aja is 4 feet tall and weighs 65 pounds, according to CNN. She has brown hair and brown eyes and is very thin.

Lester Hobbs is about 5 feet 9 inches tall and weighs about 185 pounds, with hazel eyes and brown hair, according to the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation.

He was last seen driving a 1992 Toyota Paseo with the Oklahoma license plate number 577-BPW.

Police urge anyone with information in the case to call the Geronimo Police Department at this direct line, 580-355-1115.

I can't see that he would have any reason to keep the sole witness alive, and even if Aja is found alive, the child that she was is dead now. I wish this monster could be shot on sight without penalty.; Reply to this comment
