Authorities have asked the public for days to report tips and urged trailgoers who were at Devil's Den on Saturday to look through their photos and videos for possible images of the suspect. State police said they have received 'numerous calls' but have released few details about the investigation. The suspect may have fled the rugged 2,500-acre (1,000-hectare) park, which has weak cellphone service, in a car on with a license plate partly covered by tape, state police have said. Authorities have not provided a possible motive or elaborated on how the couple were killed. The family had just moved from South Dakota to the small city of Prairie Grove in northwest Arkansas, and their water had been connected less than two weeks ago, Mayor David Faulk said. Clinton Brink had been scheduled to start a job as a milk delivery driver Monday in the nearby Fayetteville area, according to Hiland Dairy, his employer. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. 'Clinton and Cristen died heroes protecting their little girls, and they deserve justice,' the Brink family said in a statement.' They will forever live in all of our hearts.' Officials described the suspect as a white male wearing dark shorts, a dark ball cap, sunglasses and fingerless gloves. He was seen driving toward a park exit in a black, four-door sedan with a license plate partly covered by tape. The car, possibly a Mazda, may have been travelling on State Highway 170 or State Highway 220. 'We're just really hoping that anybody who captured any video or pictures or anything suspicious, just let us know,' state police spokesperson Nick Genty said. 'We're investigating any and all tips that we get.' The FBI said its Little Rock field office is assisting state police in the investigation.

The park is known for its hiking trails and rock formations, and is a short drive from the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville and Walmart's Bentonville headquarters. On Monday, few visitors were at the park and the trails remained closed. Rangers had stepped up patrol at Devil's Den, said Shea Lewis, secretary of the Arkansas Department of Parks, Heritage and Tourism. Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders called the deaths 'horrific' and said 'law enforcement will not rest until the perpetrator is brought to justice.' Danikka Harrell, a nurse at a rehabilitation center in Montana, said the Brinks had also lived in that state for several years starting around 2018 and played on a recreational volleyball team. In the summer, the Brinks would set up a volleyball net at a local park and encourage people to play, she said. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Harrell said that when she struggled to find child care, the Brinks allowed her daughter to stay with them 'without a thought' and that Cristen Brink would often bring a plate of food when she brought the girl back home. 'They were selfless and unconditional with their love and support for their friends,' Harrell said. Investigators asked for potential witnesses to review their photos and videos from the park south of Fayetteville. The bodies of the couple were taken to the state crime lab, where the manner and cause of death will be determined.

Create Account A court in the southern city of Ingolstadt convicted the defendants of gang robbery over the museum heist, German news agency dpa reported. A fourth defendant was acquitted of involvement in the museum heist but convicted for other thefts carried out by the group. The suspects from northern Germany were arrested months after a Nov. 22, 2022 break-in at the Celtic and Roman Museum in the Bavarian town of Manching, in which 483 Celtic coins discovered during an 1999 archaeological dig were stolen. The coins dated to around 100 B.C. The coins and a lump of unworked gold were originally discovered during excavations of an ancient settlement in Manching, and authorities have said they are considered the biggest trove of Celtic gold found in the 20th century. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Most of the stolen treasure is still missing, but investigators found lumps of gold on one of the suspects when he was arrested that appear to have resulted from part of the treasure being melted down. Investigators have said that cables were cut at a telecommunications hub, knocking out local networks, before the heist, and that the thieves got in and out of the museum in nine minutes during the night without triggering an alarm. The four defendants were accused of a total of 20 break-ins or attempted robberies in Germany and neighbouring Austria, starting in 2014. Other cases involved safes or cash machines being broken into. The defendants didn't address the charges during the roughly six-month trial, but their lawyers called for their acquittal. The court sentenced them to prison terms ranging from four years and nine months to 11 years. MLB Sunshine Girls Celebrity Toronto & GTA Columnists
