Maximilian Halterman was shot and killed in a home in Butler County on March 20, 2019.

Wednesday afternoon, police identified the suspect as Alec Miller, 19, and announced they are actively searching for him.

State police are also serving several search warrants, including one for information from a cell phone.

"We do know there was some type of relationship between the two. Exactly what that is we haven’t determined yet," said Lt. Dan Ekis, Pennsylvania State Police.
