Sketch released in shooting of teen lesbian couple

Source: MSNBC.com

Police have released a sketch of a suspect in the shooting of a South Texas couple that left one dead and another wounded last month.

With help from a witness, Portland police described the alleged gunman as a skinny male in his 20s, weighing 140 pounds. The sketch was released late Wednesday.

Mary Kristene Chapa, 18, and Mollie Judith Olgin, 19, were both found June 23 in a park with gunshot wounds to the head. Olgin died from her injuries and Chapa remains hospitalized.

4. This miscreant's face should be plastered all over the place.

This is a remarkably detailed sketch. If is accurate and this is circulated widely enough, he will be brought to justice.

Thanks for the post.

I'm very impressed by the level of detail they were able to generate. The witness must have an excellent memory to be able to reproduce the image in their mind with such detail.
