Authorities are asking for the public's help to identify a person who is possibly associated with the suspect in Saturday's mass shooting in Arizona.
A gunman went to a town hall meeting at the Safeway supermarket in Tucson. Six people were killed and 12 others were wounded, including U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.
Early Sunday morning, investigators released a surveillance camera photo of a man who was seen at the location where the shooting occurred.
Pima County Sheriff Clarence Dupnik told reporters Saturday that authorities were searching for a second individual who was a "person of interest" in the investigation.
He is described as a white male, approximately 40 to 50 years old. He has dark hair and was last seen wearing blue jeans and a dark blue jacket.
If you have any information about the individual, you are asked to contact 911, 88-CRIME or the Federal Bureau of Investigation at (520) 791-6974.
Would be useful if the photo were shown on the actual article page.
Indeed it would. Only on CNN...
Fixed! That was fast.
It looks like Viggo Mortensen... That is my opinion.

with so many security cameras we've lost our privacy but their help is invaluable to solve crimes

Stop calling this subhuman a "gunman". He is a deranged lunatic. Real gunmen know how to control a weapon and what it is supposed to be used for.
ei8htx: You're right, that was fast. Surprised they read these!
It shows on mine. Don't know what happened to yours. The older man is rough looking. Could be the young man's dad?
That's what I thought too. They look like they have the same nose.
I wondered that even before they produced any photographs!
As Wolf would always say "We will leave it right there"
Thia guy just looks creepy.
THIS guy
You would have fit right in Salem, MA around the year 1692. From what I read nobody said this man was guilty of anything. He was not able to be located obviously after the days events and they are trying to track him down for questioning. If he turns out to be guilty of anything, then release statements like that. Until then, he is innocent until proven guilty.
Wow. The kinds of posts on articles related to the tragedy today are beyond reprehensible.
New York TImes reporting shooter was aligned with Democrats. This should overwhelm a few small minds.
Interesting... why don't you share the NY Times link with the rest of us. Haven't you learned anything from this tragedy? This is a call for moderation, not partisanship. It's clear that Jared Lee Loughner was a sick person, regardless of his affiliations. But his mental illness doesn't lessen the need for an end to the hyperpartisan politics and the hateful, violence promoting, vitriolic speech from leaders and citizens alike. We're all Americans here, let's act like it and work together.
Democrat, Republican. Liberal, Conservative. Right-wing, Left-wing. People dont you see it DOESNT MATTER what the politics of the victims or shooter(s) are, this is an AMERICAN tragedy! We are ALL AMERICANS and we should all have a common goal, to make this country of ours BETTER than our politics! When we ourselves fall into the partisan arguments and bickering, pointing fingers at Palin, Brewer, or the man (or woman on Mars) we're showing the world just how divided we are as a country. Let the people who are in charge of the investigation DO THE INVESTIGATING and keep the victims and their families in our hearts. Lets show our friends and foes alike around the world that we are the UNITED States of AMERICA!
...who hated health care reform and Spanish speakers. Hmm, methinks the guy is conservative....
Actually, I believe a school associate from four years earlier stated at the time he was politically liberal. Whether his beliefs have changed or if he still has liberal beliefs, it does not make him aligned with Democrats.
In any case he's a nutjob, regardless of political beliefs.
The small minds belong to the people who blelive thsi guys is representative of everyone in whatever party he belongs to.
The small minds belong to the people who are more interested in associating this guy with one party or another instead of recognizing the atomosphere of hate and intolerance that is becoming rampant in this supposedly "free" country.
The gold standard rants are definitely the sign of a democrat, right?

read it and weep QED
Just makin' stuff up, today C4t?
C'mon. At least try to make up a good story. Unicorns are a nice touch.
The term Democrat is nowhere to be found in that entire article.. Your post is a fail
The person of interest looks like Elvis
Looks like Harry Dean Stanton to me.
Dennis Hopper returned from the grave
The question people will be asking is why the sheriff didn't solicit help in finding this person earlier? He indicated in his press conference it was 'on the advice of counsel'. Since when did the advice of counsel supersede solving a mass murder?
Looks like a Native American.
No, he doesn't
how would you even know? coloring books at your klan meet'n?
absurd. people want to make this into a political issues, clearly an issue with someone that has mental issues, not social issues.
The problem is that some politicians, and media personalities speaking on political issues, have used vitriolic language and symbolism (i.e. cross hairs of gun scope) to further their own agendas and careers. It's no surprise that this language encourages those who are unbalanced in our communities to act upon their deranged thoughts. The danger that this extreme discourse would lead to such violence is neither a surprise nor a secret. It's proper to link this act to the extremist politics of the day because it springs from that extremism.
I totally agree. Jim? what makes lunies do what they do is mental illness. sane people don't do things like this. the people pushing radical agenda live within ALL political affiliations, not just one party. that is what I find amazing – so many here and on other sites try to act all indignant pointing fingers. the gross assumption that it is the 'fault' of non-liberal, non-democrat 'vitriolic' speech is amazing.
this man was sick – as mentioned by a classmate when experiencing disruptive outbursts from him in school.
It's starting to become difficult to see who's clinically mental and who aren't in the Republican party.
Since when is a politician, her spectators, and supporters being shot down during a political forum not a political issue? There is no reason to draw conclusions about Jared Loughner's motives because that is still unknown, but the fact that he is believed to be mentally ill doesn't mean his actions have no motive. It just means in a court of law he is not responsible for those actions because his motivations stem from an irrational mind. Much like the kind of irrational mind it would take to believe that Sarah Palin's facebook post was a call to violent action.
That is sooo true. This is a mental issue possibly due to drugs.
It was obviously an inside job.
What about that report from a witness on CNN about some younger man in black pants and white shirt running quickly away in a different part of the parking lot. The person commented something like "what dd he steal?"
Imagine that, someone running away from a shooting!
Hey i know that guy they call him dave
must be jared'd lover.
Tiffany call me
Hmmmm really assasinations still happen?? Everyone please if ur thinking about mass killing jus pick up a copy of call of duty black ops please no need to get real
Are you serious, Brad? Just goes to show you how sheltered we are here in the states because assassinations happen all over the world and have been since men made other men their leaders.
