The FBI released a second surveillance image of the SUV.

Aguilar was last seen outside her home at the Rosewood Mobile Home Park on November 5 just before 7 a.m.

Investigators said Aguilar was outside her home starting up her aunt's vehicle in preparation for going to school.

Witnesses said the man who abducted Aguilar wore a yellow bandanna over his face, so they did not get a good look at him.

They said he grabbed Aguilar and forced her into her relative's vehicle -- a green 2002 Ford Expedition with South Carolina tag NWS984.

The FBI said the paint on the hood of the vehicle is peeling and there is a Clemson sticker on the rear window.

Call 911 if you see the SUV.

The FBI is offering a $15,000 reward for information that leads to the whereabouts of Aguilar. Lumberton Police Department set up a special tip line to call if you have information to help investigators find Hania at (910) 272-5871.

Missing posters are now available in English and Spanish on www.fbi.gov.
