DELPHI, Ind. -- The Carroll County prosecutor is urging those who live in the county to not harass anybody about the two killed teenage girls, Abigail Williams and Liberty German. 

Robert T. Ives posted on Facebook Sunday afternoon, telling the public to "let the police work."

"There are no charges pending against anyone as a result of the pending investigation," he wrote. "No one at the home searched is suspected of committing any crime."

Thursday night, members of the Indiana State Police searched a house on Bicycle Bridge Road, taking photos and collecting evidence from the scene.

Indiana State Police Sgt. Kim Riley said the search was in response to the hundreds of tips they have received over the last 24 hours in connection with the case.

Nobody has been arrested from the search, but police are trying to find a man seen in a photo, calling him a suspect.

Sgt. Tony Slocum said the person pictured is “our suspect we are considering at this time" and they would like to arrest him.

Williams, 13, and German, 14, went missing on Feb. 13 after being dropped off to go hiking near the Monon High Bridge. Their bodies were found last Tuesday about a mile from where they were dropped off, on private property.
