What to know about the fatal attack of a married couple at Devil's Den park in Arkansas
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — Authorities have released a photo and a composite sketch of a person they are trying to question as they investigate the fatal attack of a married couple in front of their children at Devil's Den State Park in Arkansas. The search for the man who killed the hikers at a state park in northwest Arkansas entered its fifth day, while many details about the attack remain unclear. Here are some things to know: Couple found dead on a walking trail Clinton David Brink, 43, and Cristen Amanda Brink, 41, were found dead Saturday on a walking trail at Devil's Den. Their daughters, who are 7 and 9, were not hurt and are being cared for by family members, authorities have said. Police have released a composite sketch and photo of a person of interest they are searching for in the attack. Along with the drawing, state police released a statement saying the suspect 'likely sustained an injury while attacking the couple.' It did not go into further detail. The State Police has said it has received numerous calls. But the agency has released few details, including how the couple was killed and whether it believes the killer is still in the area. The FBI has said its Little Rock field office is assisting in the investigation. Police released composite sketch of person of interest Police have not identified the killer or given a possible motive for the attack. But they have provided a description, the composite sketch and the photo of a person of interest. The photo was provided by a witness who was at Devil's Den State Park Saturday, police said. The photo was taken from behind and does not show the person of interest's face. Officials described him as a white male wearing a long-sleeved shirt with sleeves rolled up, dark pants, a dark ball cap and sunglasses. He was carrying a black backpack and wore 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 traveling on nearby State Highway 170 or State Highway 220. Victims had moved from South Dakota Clinton and Cristen Brink had just moved from South Dakota to the small city of Prairie Grove in northwest Arkansas. 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. Cristen Brink had been licensed as a nurse in Montana and South Dakota before moving to Arkansas. The Brink family said the couple died 'heroes protecting their little girls.' Park known for hiking trails Devil's Den is a 2,500-acre state park near West Fork, about 140 miles (220 kilometers) northwest of Little Rock, the state capital. Devil's Den is known for its hiking trails and rock formations, and it is a short drive from the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville and Walmart's Bentonville headquarters. It was selected as a state park site in the 1930s. The park's trails, which lead to the surrounding Ozark National Forest, remained closed Wednesday. Authorities have asked the public to report tips and urged trail-goers who were at Devil's Den on Saturday to look through their photos and videos for possible images of the suspect. Police have also asked local residents to review any security or game camera footage for unusual activity or images matching the vehicle. Error! Sorry, there was an error processing your request.

Arkansas Police Release Photo of ‘Person of Interest' in Killing of Couple
The police in Arkansas on Tuesday released a photo of a 'person of interest' they hoped to question in connection with the killing of a married couple who were attacked on Saturday afternoon while hiking with their young daughters in a remote section of Devil's Den State Park. The image of the man was taken by another hiker, said Nick Genty, a spokesman for the Arkansas State Police. 'He could have been captured in the background of someone's photo,' Mr. Genty said. The release of the picture came one day after the police circulated a sketch of a person they believe to be the same man, based on witness interviews with hikers who were in the state park that afternoon. The police have not revealed how the couple were killed, and Mr. Genty said that they had yet to determine if the attack was random or targeted. The man, described by the police as a man of medium build, was last seen wearing a long-sleeve shirt with the sleeves rolled up, dark pants, a dark baseball cap and sunglasses. He carried a black backpack, wore fingerless gloves and may have been injured during the attack, according to the police. Witnesses told investigators that the man was seen leaving the area in a black, four-door sedan — possibly a Mazda — with its license plate covered with electrical or duct tape. He was reportedly driving toward either State Highway 170 or State Highway 220, police said. The police declined to say if the concealed license plate might suggest premeditation or an intent to evade identification. The victims, identified as Clinton David Brink, 43, and Cristen Amanda Brink, 41, had recently moved from Miles City, Mont., to Prairie Grove, Ark., which is about 17 miles north of the state park. The family was attacked while hiking on a trail in a remote area of the park that has limited cell service, the police said. The couple had been hiking with their two daughters, who are 7 and 9. The girls were not injured in the attack. The police declined to say whether anyone intervened to help the family. The couple's bodies were found near the walking trail. The children are now in the care of family members. The couple's family released a statement on Monday, urging anyone with information to come forward. 'Please contact the proper authorities immediately,' the statement reads. 'Clinton and Cristen died heroes, protecting their little girls and they deserve justice.'
