The man was described as 6’1”, weighing between 160-175 pounds, was wearing blue jeans and a dark colored T-shirt (possible rock band logo on the front) and had long hair pulled back into a pony tail.
The suspect fled the scene in an older primer gray Oldsmobile traveling in the direction of Bledsoe County.
