Police in Arkansas are searching for a suspect in the deaths of a couple who investigators said were attacked while on a wooded walking trail with their two young daughters.

A mother and father were killed this weekend at an Arkansas state park while they were out hiking with their young daughters, state police said. A manhunt is underway for the suspect.

The victims had recently moved to Prairie Grove, about 12 miles from the park. A manhunt was underway for a man described as wearing dark clothing and fingerless gloves.
