He was well dressed, had a cell phone and was nice looking.” The male told the couple “his family moved to town about three months ago, and he has been looking for jobs but is not having luck.” The couple said they “provided sandwiches and sent him on his way,” but “minutes later they received a call from a neighbor” who said “the male had been at her sister’s condo and appeared to be heading to” another residence.
