State police are hunting for a 23-year-old man with swastika tattoos wanted in New York for three early morning murders.
Police said they activated the amber security alert at around 2 p.m. today.
Police say the suspect, Matthew Slocum, has taken his girlfriend and 4-month-old son and is traveling with them in Massachusetts or New Hampshire against their will. There has been a “potential sighting” of the car in Gilsum, N.H. Authorities are responding to the location and asking people in that area to pay attention to the vehicle description that has been released, according to state police spokesman Dave Procopio.
Slocum is wanted in connection with three deaths in a house fire in Eagle Bridge, N.Y., police said.
The suspect may be travelling in a black 2003 Ford Mustang, with two doors, and bearing NY registration DED1769.
UPDATE: State police just released further descriptions:
LORETTA COLEGROVE, 5’8” tall, 194 lbs., with long straight reddish brown hair, typically worn pulled back with a white or light blue scrunchie. She was last seen wearing a light blue tank top with thin straps, blue jean shorts and flip flops.
