Jan. 4 (UPI) -- Houston police have released a new composite sketch in the manhunt of the suspected killer of a 7-year-old girl, who was shot dead last weekend.
Jazmine Barnes died Saturday after she was shot while sitting in her family's vehicle. The new sketch was drawn with help from the girl's older sisters.
Investigators say a red, four-door pickup truck pulled alongside the vehicle in east Houston and fired. One bullet struck Jazmine in the head and another hit LaPorsha Washington in the arm. One of Jazmine's sisters was injured by shattered glass.
The death of Jazmine has gained national attention. Family members said the initial sketch of the suspect was wrong and asked that a new one be made. He's described as a white male in his 30s or 40s who wore a black, hooded sweatshirt and looked "sick" and skinny. He did not have glasses or a beard as was previously reported.
