Speaker 2: and first hand accounts of encounters with the possible suspect

00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,679

00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,240
Speaker 2: though they did not see the attack, they were able

59
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 2: to provide additional information that helped create a composite sketch

60
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 2: of the suspect. The investigation began with the description of

61
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 2: the possible suspect car, a black sedan that was Sporty.

62
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 2: Using that descriptor, investigators find several videos from homes and

63
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 2: businesses along the routes to and from the state park

64
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 2: of this particular sporty black sedan and compiled a more

65
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 2: complete description of the suspect vehicle. This became critical in

66
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 2: identifying the suspect, as they were able to determine the

67
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 2: vehicle seen on video was a Kia Stinger. Using information

68
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 2: on owners of that particular make it model, investigators were

69
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 2: able to identify a possible suspect and track him down.

70
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 2: Andrew McGann was located at a Lupita's beauty salon and

71
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 2: barbershop in Springdale. McGann was in the middle of getting

72
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,839
Speaker 2: his haircut when officers came into the salon and asked

73
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:20,720
Speaker 2: for the owner of the Kia in the parking lot

74
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 2: and telling him it needed to be moved. Mcghn identified

75
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,360
Speaker 2: himself as the owner, and police immediately noticed several cuts

76
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 2: on his hands. While McGann was detained, he provided consent

77
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,479
Speaker 2: for investigators to enter the vehicle, where officers noticed what

78
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,159
Speaker 2: appears to be blood. Due to the amount of blood

79
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:40,479
Speaker 2: found at the crime scene and the cuts to his hands,

80
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:44,920
Speaker 2: investigators seized the Kia Stinger and transported to Arkansas State

81
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:49,479

82
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,839
Speaker 2: warrant was executed by the state Police at McGann's house,

83
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 2: and while still waiting for some results, the initial DNA

84
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 2: from the crime scene and McGann's car were a match.

85
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,720
Speaker 2: Investigators believe McGann was injured during the attack, resulting in

86
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 2: blood laws at the crime scene. This blood was used

87
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,920
Speaker 2: to establish a DNA profile that was later matched with McGann.

88
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 2: Knives were also located and collected at the McGann residence,

89
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 2: but it is not known if any of the weapons

90
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 2: found was used in the murders until testing is completed.

91
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 2: Authorities believe McGann acted alone and do not expect more

92
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,719
Speaker 2: arrests in the case, and they have also stated that

93
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:30,160
