Police said they looked into whether the killing was a hate crime, but said they found no indication “that this was a bias incident.” Officials do believe Torres acted alone, and are not looking to arrest any other suspects.

ICE said in a statement Monday that they have filed a detainer on Torres, a citizen of El Salvador, for potential deportation as he is believed to be in the U.S. illegally.

The ADAMS center in Sterling, where the teens are believed to have been attending an overnight event, released a statement in regards to Hassanen's death.

“We are devastated and heartbroken as our community undergoes and processes this traumatic event,” the center said in a statement. “It is a time for us to come together to pray and care for our youth.”

The center said it would have licensed counselors on site Monday to help the community cope with the loss.

Virginia Attorney General Mark Herring urged the public to show \"love and support\" for the ADAMS center and the Muslim community.

The unspeakable murder in Sterling feels like an assault on our entire community. Love and respect must overcome hate.

\"The unspeakable murder in Sterling feels like an assault on our entire community. Love and respect must overcome hate,\" Herring said in a tweet Sunday. \"This breaks my heart. @ADAMSCenter_ has always welcomed me like family. Let's surround community w/ love & support.\"

Parker said the investigation of the case is ongoing and said the case may be prosecuted in Loudon County instead of Fairfax County because of elements of the crime and where they occurred.

Deputy Chief Tom Ryan expressed his condolences to the 17-year-old's family and reiterated Fairfax County's support for the Muslim community during Monday's press conference.

\"I can assure you that while justice will not bring Nabrah Hassanen back justice, will be done,\" said Ryan.

A community vigil will be held on Wednesday, June 21 by the South Lake Muslim Students Association in honor of Hassanen's death.
