TMZ adds that evidence led police to believe there was a forced entry and struggle inside the home, with police later obtaining surveillance footage from the neighborhood and discovering their suspect was a "white male dressed in black."

According to the report, detectives learned that Harwick had recently shared her concerns about an ex-boyfriend that she had previously held a restraining order against. TMZ notes that Harwick was concerned about him "causing her harm" after the restraining order ended two weeks earlier.
