Salina Police are still searching for a man in connection with the death of a baby.

An arrest warrant for murder and child abuse was issued on Wednesday for Troy Love II.

Police say that as of Friday morning, Love was still not in custody. Media coverage has generated several tips, but no arrest has been made.

Police say that Bre'elle died as a result of injuries consistent with child abuse.
