Rosenaika Cauratt is described as being 3 feet tall, weighing about 30 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes, according to the alert.
She was last seen around 12:25 a.m. Wednesday wearing a zebra print hoodie, blue jeans and brown boots, according to the alert. She is possibly in the company of an unidentified black man, described as being between 40 and 50 years old and about 6 feet tall.
