Cascade County Homicide Update: Person of Interest Revealed [WATCH]
Cascade County Sheriff's Office released an update on Tuesday afternoon regarding the investigation of the January 9th homicide.
This time, we have our first look at a person of interest in the investigation.
Cascade County Homicide Update: Search Area Update
In an update shared to Facebook, Sheriff Jesse Slaughter shared they've narrowed their area of investigation down to "14th Street over to 20th street and 10th Avenue South up to 2nd Avenue South."

"We're looking for video on January 9th in this area and the time frame is about 3:30 in the morning til about 4:47, that is the time that we've narrowed down," Sheriff Slaughter said in the video.
"We believe our person of interest does possibly get into our victim's car during this time."

In the video, Sheriff Slaughter reveals what many in the community have been asking for: images of the suspect.
Sheriff Slaughter then steps aside to reveal infrared camera footage of a "person of interest."
"This is our person of interest here walking, this was an earlier video," Sheriff Slaughter shares, "One of the reasons we didn't release this video is that you can obviously see from this video you really can't tell who that person is."
The video is certainly grainy but it does offer us a look at the person of interest. Sheriff Slaughter points out several details to look for in the video:
I want you to look at the gate in which the person walks if there's anything that's distinctive about the way they walk, common clothing they might be wearing, is the bag symbolic in any way, someone might know who this person is. It does appear there might be a face covering and the infrared cameras are distorting the color, we believe it is a light colored zip-up hoodie or coat but we really can't tell.
Sheriff Slaughter then reveals a second video.

This video shows us the victim and the person of interest together in the red 2014 Chevy Cruze that was previously released as a piece of evidence.
"This is our victim in the driver's seat, this is our victim's car which we've already released out to the public," Sheriff Slaughter explains, "We believe this person here in the car is our person of interest and again possibly got into this car in that area of town I had on the map earlier sometime between 3, 3:30 to 4:47 in the morning."
"It appears that they possibly have a vape in their hand. We're pretty confident that this person is the last person to see our victim alive due to our timeline."
