BROCKTON (CBS) - Two days after a 74-year-old man was beaten to death with a hammer, Plymouth County's District Attorney is releasing new details about the suspect in hopes of capturing him.
Officials say they are looking for a light-skinned English-speaking Hispanic or Cape Verdean man between 16 and 29 years old.
He's around 5'11" tall with a thin to athletic build. The suspect was clean shaven with black hair in a pony tail. He was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and possibly a white t-shirt underneath with long light-colored shorts and black sneakers.
