Her brother says investigators told him she was doing homework the night she disappeared. Mollie&#8217;s boyfriend also says he got a SnapChat from her around 10 p.m. that same night, and she appeared to be indoors.<br />
This adds another twist because it suggests that Mollie returned to the house after her jog and didn&#8217;t disappear while running, as had been previously thought.<br />
Family members told local <a href="http://www.kcci.com/article/new-details-provide-more-insight-the-night-mollie-tibbetts-was-last-seen/22582278" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CBS affiliate KCCI</a> the new information on Saturday, but authorities did not give any new timeline—in order not to hurt the search.<br />
She was last seen on July 18 running in Brooklyn, Iowa. She was staying at her boyfriend’s home at the time of her disappearance. She was there to watch his dogs because he had a construction job about 100 miles northeast in Dubuque.<br />
The Poweshiek County Sheriff’s Office is working the case alongside state investigators, the FBI and other law enforcement agencies. At a press conference Tuesday, authorities said they’ve “put together a pretty solid timeline” of what Tibbetts was doing <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/us/2018/07/26/search-for-mollie-tibbets-intensifies-as-investigators-review-fitbit-snapchat-data.html">prior to her disappearance.</a><br />
Friends and family say Tibbetts, an avid runner, was usually wearing her Fitbit. Authorities reportedly searched cornfields and a nearby pig farm, but there has been no sign of the girl.</p>

<p class="speakable">The press conference comes as police in Pella say the man being sought for taking pictures of female joggers on Friday has turned himself in.Tibbetts, a University of Iowa student, was last seen jogging in the Brooklyn, Iowa area on July 18, about an hour&#8217;s drive away from the city of Pella.<br />
Police in Pella said the man revealed why he had taken the photos, which remain undisclosed.<br />
“I’ve got the detectives fact checking everything he’s given us,&#8221; Police Lt. Shane Cox said. &#8220;At this point there are no criminal charges,&#8221; and he added that he doesn&#8217;t expect there to be any.</p>

<div data-ad-pos="inread" data-ad-size="1x1">However, investigators are yet to reveal what they call the &#8220;solid timeline&#8221; they&#8217;ve pieced together, maintaining that there is nothing new to report publicly on the search, but they&#8217;re still working hard.For the Rob Tibbetts, who flew in from Fresno, California to assist in the search for his daughter, no piece of information is too small or insignificant. He says it could be the clue that brings his daughter home.<br />
We are fighting. That&#8217;s all we can do,” said Rob Tibbetts. “She is a real person. Not a missing girl on a poster.”<br />
Tibbetts was born in San Francisco and lived in Oakland until she moved to Iowa with her mother when she was in second grade, <a href="https://www.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/2018/07/24/mollie-tibbetts-missing-family-search-university-iowa-student-brooklyn-iowa/827544002/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the Des Moines Register reported</a>.<br />
Rick Rahn, a special agent in charge at the Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation (DCI), on Friday revealed that they &#8220;anticipate additional sites&#8221; will come into the picture.<br />
“We’re looking at anybody and everybody that would lead us to locating her,&#8221; he said, noting that “her missing is suspicious” and that authorities are “hoping to locate her sooner than later.&#8221;<br />
Rahn disclosed that investigators have received &#8220;zero information&#8221; indicating that Tibbetts was a runaway or had a medical reason for her disappearance.</p>
