WANTED MAN

Photo Released of Suspect in Horror Hiker Slayings

Police are hunting a man in connection with the double homicide.

Arkansas State Police have released a photo of a man they want to question over a horrific double homicide on a hiking trail. Clinton David Brink, 43, and Cristen Amanda Brink, 41, were found dead in a remote area of Devil’s Den State Park in northwest Arkansas last Saturday. Their two daughters, aged 7 and 9, were hiking with them but were not harmed and are now in the care of family members, according to police. Authorities say a witness took the photo of the wanted man from behind. He is a white male of medium build, who was seen wearing a long-sleeved shirt with rolled-up sleeves, dark pants, dark baseball cap, and sunglasses. He also had fingerless gloves, was carrying a black backpack, and may have sustained an injury during the attack. Witnesses saw him leaving the scene in a black four-door sedan driving towards State Highway 170 or State Highway 220. Police have also released a composite sketch of the man and have asked anyone in the park on Saturday, or anyone who lives nearby, to check what they filmed on their phones or security cameras. The tip line is (501) 618-TIPS.
