A couple who were hiking with their young daughters were killed on Devil’s Den trail and now a suspect description has been released.

Clinton David Brink, 43, and Cristen Amanda Brink, 41, shared two children aged seven and nine.

It’s believed the family-of-four had recently moved to the area, reports Need To Know.

Police were alerted to the double murder at around 2:40pm, where the couple were found dead on the walking trail.

According to local reports, their two daughters weren’t injured and are currently in the care of other family members.

Authorities describe the suspect as a White male with a medium build, who was wearing a long-sleeved shirt, dark trousers, a dark hat and sunglasses.

It’s also believed he was carrying a black backpack and wearing fingerless gloves.

Police say he was seen driving toward a park exit in a black, four-door sedan, possibly a Mazda, with a license plate covered in tape.

“Investigators are asking those who visited the Park on Saturday to check cellphone photos and videos or GoPro camera footage for images of the suspect,” Arkansas Department of Public Safety said.

“They are also asking residents of the area surrounding the park to notify ASP if they have access to security or game camera footage.”

They’re urging people not to share anything on social media.

Devil’s Den State Park has since remained closed to the public while the investigation continues.
