The local police released a picture of the alleged man who according to them is walking along the Indiana trail at the same time the two teenagers. The identity of the man is still currently unknown.

Investigators want to question the man on what he saw at the Delphi Historic Trails during the the time of the teenager's disappearance. For now, this is the only clue that may lead to solving the case.
