Manhunt for Pa. suspect in slaying of Iowa rep.'s sisters

PITTSBURGH - Police have charged a neighbor with killing two sisters of an Iowa state lawmaker during a break-in and robbery at their home in Pittsburgh, Pa. last month.

Allen Darell Wade, 43, is not in custody, and police say he should be considered armed and dangerous. A warrant for the suspect's arrest has been obtained, reports CBS Pittsburgh.

Authorities say he left his residence after he was questioned in the slayings of 44-year-old Susan Wolfe and her sister, 38-year-old Sarah Wolfe.

Their bodies were found Feb. 7. Wade had been questioned and released late last month before police filed charges including criminal homicide, burglary and robbery against him Wednesday.

Police didn't say how they linked Wade to the killings of the sisters of Iowa Democratic state Rep. Mary Wolfe. But investigators had been conducting DNA tests on items taken from the home.

Police described Wade as 5-feet-9-inches tall, weighing roughly 200 pounds, reports the station. He may have shaved his head recently and is known to use a walking cane.
