Wendlingen (dpa / lsw) - After the alleged rape of a 13-year-old girl in Wendlingen (Esslingen district), investigators are looking for a fleeting further suspect.

The adolescent was identified and is said to have been involved in the act, said the police and prosecutors on Tuesday.

A police spokesman was unable to provide details on the alleged part of the crime.

Two of the four young men who had already been arrested were released.

The suspicion against a 17-year-old Italian was not confirmed.

The arrest warrant against a 17-year-old German was suspended.

Last Wednesday, four young men between 16 and 19 years of age were suspected of being in custody.

The suspects are said to have forced the 13-year-old and her boyfriend to get off the train, separated from each other and raped the 13-year-old.

The girl's companion was able to call 911.

The police are still investigating suspected gang rape.
