Authorities have said they still have no suspects for the murder of a 23-year-old pregnant Amish woman found dead in her Pennsylvania home on Monday.

Rebekah Byler was six months pregnant when she was shot dead in her Crawford County home, where her two children were found unharmed.

Trooper Cynthia Schick said on Tuesday that an autopsy has provided some evidence, including her time of death.

Schick did not offer additional details besides that Byler was the victim of homicide, after locals reported seeing a red Jeep at the property around the time of the killing.

'Keep being vigilant. This is a criminal homicide investigation. Practice safe procedures keep your doors locked, report any suspicious behavior of persons or vehicles whether it was past or current,' Schick said.

Police are asking the public for help identifying a suspect and offering a $2,000 reward for information.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Corry barracks at 814-663-2043.

Residents and family members said that they recall seeing a red Jeep outside of the home at 10am where Byler lived with her husband Andy, who was not home when she was killed.

Locals in the community have banded together to raise money for Byler's family.

'I'm just absolutely heartbroken that this has happened,' Charleen Hajec, the owner of Spartansburg Pharmacy, told ABC 6. 'I'm very concerned about the Amish community and worried for them.'

A homicide investigation is exceedingly uncommon in the rural area, which is located 40 miles outside the city of Erie.

State police are 'aggressively investigating all available leads.'

How many feds have been crawling around town lately? They had that problem in North Carolina a while back. The FBI extended stay task force knocked up the locals bigly. The feds spent years and $24 million in the hillbilly lands of North Carolina chasing tail and Eric Rudolph.

Sex or money. It’s usually one of the two. Or both. And a family member. Police are scouring the husband’s life right now.

Has Ann Coulter’s law weighed in on this?

I watch the crime dramas.

Check the baby’s DNA. Who was the father?
