11-year-old Caitlyn is described as being 5 feet and 80 pounds. She may be wearing glasses. Her father and suspected abductor Timothy Virts, 38, is described as being 6'3" and 280 pounds.
Authorities responded to a home in Dundalk around 9 a.m. Thursday on reports of a person in cardiac arrest and found Caitlyn's mom, 36-year-old Bobbie Cortez, dead. Police have not confirmed how she died.
Detectives say Cortez lived at the Dundalk Maryland home (Baltimore County) with her three children -- 11-year-old Caitlyn Virts, who is now missing, Caitlyn's twin sister and a son. Two adults whose relationships with the victim have not been verified also reportedly live at the home. The victim's other two children are safe and in the custody of family members, according to the station.
An Amber Alert for Caitlyn was issued Thursday morning. Police are reportedly concerned for her safety since she is not supposed to be with her father.
He may be driving a black 1999 Dodge Durango bearing Maryland license plates 5AJ4458- which is registered to Daniel Cortez, 38. Daniel Cortez is the victim's husband. He is currently being held at the Baltimore County Detention Center on various sex offense charges, reports the station.
Anyone with information in regards to the whereabouts of Caitlyn Virts or Timothy Virts is asked to call 911 or Baltimore County Police Department at 410-887-2020.

Hoping the dad doesn't pull a murder/suicide and that Caitlyn is recovered safely.
Gotta wonder about the nature of the sex offenses charges against mom's husband. Also, curious as to why Caitlyn isn't supposed to be with her dad.
