VIDEO — ‘Heinous Crime’: Manhunt Underway for Suspect in Killing of Couple at Arkansas Park

Jul 28, 2025 | U.S.

The victims, who had recently moved to Prairie Grove, Arkansas, are identified as 43-year-old Clinton Brink and 41-year-old Cristen Brink. They were killed hiking with their daughters, whose ages are nine and seven, KNWA reported Monday.

Their deaths were first reported around 2:40 p.m. after their bodies were found on a trail in the park.

“Try to relay to the office that we found the victims down here. There are [sic] on the lower Devil’s Den Trail… I think I see you right there. I’ve got two bodies down here,” a trooper said in a recording from a police scanner.

According to Arkansas State Police (ASP), the children were not injured and are now in the care of family members.

The agency deemed the case a “suspected homicide” and gave a description of the suspect.

“The family is asking for privacy during this very difficult time as they grieve and learn how to navigate this new reality. They ask that if anyone has any information at all that will help in the investigation to please contact the proper authorities immediately,” their statement reads. “Clinton and Cristen died heroes protecting their little girls, and they deserve justice. They will forever live in all of our hearts.”
