The two girls were great friends, enjoying a day off from school. Family dropped them off for a local hike and arranged to pick them up later. During their time out, Libby recorded video and photos of a man walking across a bridge and recorded audio of a man instructing them to go "down the hill". There may be more photos and videos, but those are what have been released so far.

Libby was able to get photos, video, and audio of the suspect. In 2019, the sketch was updated and released in a press conference. Multiple persons of interest have been compared to the photo online, but the Delphi Police Department have not matched a person to the sketch or photo.
A family member dropped them off near Monon High Bridge so that they could walk the trail and spend time together.
At 2:07 p.m., Libby posted a photo to Snapchat of Abby walking across the bridge.
When they were dropped off, they had agreed to meet a particular spot to be picked up. They didn't show up and didn't answer their phones.
The search is technically ended for the day, though there are reports that people were searching past 2 a.m.
Information was slow to be released, but there was initially a confirmation that the girls were found and it was "not good."
Indicating that they would like to speak to him as a potential witness, police release a photo of a man (that they had recovered in some way from Libby's phone).
The police now indicate that the man in the photo is the suspect in the murder of the two girls and they initiate a statewide manhunt the next day.
