The two teenagers arrested in connection with the shooting death of journalist Lyra McKee have been released by authorities in Northern Ireland without being charged.

The men, ages 18 and 19, were set free on Sunday night after officials determined that the two were not the ones who fired the bullet that fatally struck the 29-year-old journalist last week, according to police.

McKee, who wrote for publications including The Atlantic and Buzzfeed News, was hit by a stray bullet that was likely meant for police as riots unfolded in the city of Londonderry on Thursday night.

The two teens had been detained on anti-terrorism charges prior to their release. Police are urging anyone with information about the slaying to come forward.

Video from the scene showed a gunman wearing a black face mask aiming at officers.

McKee’s funeral is scheduled to be held in her native Belfast on Wednesday.
