The alert was first issued Monday night for missing 16-year-old Kiera Inman of Spokane, who was described as "developmentally delayed."

Police said Kiera is believed to be in the company of Jones, 30, in a 1997 blue Acura 4-door with Virginia plates.

According to AmberAlert.com, Kiera’s grandmother said the teen left evidence that she left home willingly, but that she functions “at a diminished capacity and unable to make realistic life choices.”

The poster did not say what kind of medication the teenager takes.

“The child’s grandmother advises she left on foot but her cell phone tracked her possibly in a vehicle,” the alert poster said.
