Allmer said the Lieba is not the girl’s father or any other blood relation to Lilley or her family.
During the investigation, Allmer said, items potentially belonging to Maci were discovered, but he could not provide any more information.
At 11:20 a.m. authorities found Maci Lilley, the missing 4-year-old girl, alive and in good health according to Lee Allmer, a spokesman with Roosevelt County.
The Roosevelt County Sheriff’s Office says John Lieba has been apprehended in Wolf Point.
A Montana sheriff said Sunday the search for a 4-year-old girl abducted from an Indian reservation was “our No. 1 priority”.
Maci Lilley has been found alive by Undersheriff Corey Reum a few miles north of Wolf Point, the town where witnesses say she was taken by a young man in a park about 9:30 p.m. Friday.
Witnesses told police that they had seen man taking the little girl from a park “against her will”, NBC reports. She was last seen wearing a pink coat, blue jeans, pink and white shoes, and has short hair with bangs, zig zagged teeth.
