The suspect is around 5’10” tall, 155 lbs. and is believed to be in his 20s. He has a tattoo of a "bio-hazard" symbol which is visible on the outside of his left forearm, just below his elbow. At the time, he was wearing a gray beanie, green t-shirt, gray sweatpants, and gray and white high-top shoes similar to "Vans" shoes.
