SAVANNAH, Ga. (WSAV) — The individual whom Savannah Police were trying to identify via social media in relation to the acid attack on December 10 has voluntarily met with investigators and has been cleared as a suspect, a spokesperson confirmed on Tuesday.

Following his meeting with the officers, the man was allowed to leave without any charges. The detectives were able to pursue new leads based on the information gathered from their discussion with him, according to a police representative.

On Sunday, a Savannah Police spokesperson emphasized that the man is “NOT” considered a suspect in the incident, despite rampant speculation about his involvement circulating on social media. His photograph was extensively shared by both officials and local news outlets.

Ashley Wasielewski was attacked near Forsyth Park when someone doused her with a corrosive substance before escaping. She was rushed to the Augusta Burn Center for necessary medical care, and a GoFundMe page has been established to aid her recovery journey.

The investigation remains active, and as of now, no arrests have been made.

Anyone with information related to the Dec. 10 aggravated assault is encouraged to contact CrimeStoppers at 912-234-2020 or submit an anonymous tip through the SPD mobile app.

The FBI is also offering up to a $5,000 reward information leading to the arrest of the person responsible Wasielewski’s assault.
