Police Search For Man Considered 'Possible Person Of Interest' In NH Suspicious Death

CONCORD, N.H. (CBS) -- A man is considered possibly armed and dangerous after he was able to run off while police tried to arrest him at the scene of a stolen car on Swan Street in Methuen Saturday.

According to police, this man is the same man - Joseph King Hanright, 29 -  is a "possible person of interest" in connection with the homicide of Marshall John Villeneuve (age 64), of Concord, New Hampshire, who was found stabbed to death in his home Friday.

"Mass. State Police, Methuen, I believe Lawrence PD was there blocking off all the roads. Choppers in the air - I mean, everything was being canvassed and pretty much anyone we spoke to in the area was notified, so everybody was on the lookout," said Rob Parnell of Methuen.

"A short pursuit took place. Two people fled from the vehicle. One male, one female. The female was apprehended. The male continued to flee. An intensive search was done for the next two hours for the male. We were unable to locate that person at this time," said Captain Kris McCarthy, of the Methuen Police Department.

Hanright is described by police as white, bald, and about 5'8 to 5'10" tall. He was wearing jean shorts, no shirt and possibly no shoes and has a lot of tattoos on his upper body. Police believe he could have headed into Lawrence.

A woman who investigators say was with Hanright was taken into custody Saturday afternoon.

Police also said they are looking for a blue 2012 Mazda 3 sedan with the New Hampshire license plate 4055307.

The public is asked to call 911 if they see Hanright and to not approach him.
