An AMBER Alert is issued for a missing 5-year-old girl and the man suspected of abducting her.

Police say Aubrey Madison Johnson and her mother were with the suspect, Rique' R. Griffin, early this morning when the mother and Griffin got into an altercation. Griffin allegedly assaulted the mother, who was able to get away and call 911, but police say Griffin drove off with the child in the vehicle.

Aubrey is described as an African-American girl, weighing 35 lbs. She is 2'5" tall, has a chipped front tooth, a scar on her left thigh and both of her ears are pierced. She was last seen wearing a button down jean shirt, jeans with a white floral pattern and a lime green bow in her ponytail.

Griffin is described as a 21-year-old African-American man who weighs 165 lbs. He is 5'9" tall, has a mohawk-style haircut with dredlocks, a scar over his right eye, a tattoo of a vein over his right eye, a tattoo on the back of his neck and "ATL" tattoos on both arms. He was last seen wearing a light-colored shirt and jeans.

Griffin is believed to be traveling in a silver Ford Explorer.
