The Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff's Office posted to Facebook asking the public for help identifying the suspect on Tuesday, saying "detectives believe the individual seen in these store surveillance pictures is the last person known to have been driving 69-year-old William Nicholas Abraham’s vehicle."
"The vehicle was located by Baton Rouge Police Monday afternoon. The driver of the vehicle, at the time, sped away from a traffic stop and ultimately ran away after crashing the car," the post continued.

The Tangipahoa Parish Coroner’s Office ruled Abraham was killed by blunt force trauma. The investigation has now been turned over to the East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff's Office.
"I’m absolutely devastated and completely surprised that something like that could have happened to a man who I believed to be so tender, so gentle, and have such a servant’s heart," said Abraham's attorney Jarrett Ambeau to FOX 8 New Orleans.
The Dallas County Sheriff's Office has not yet responded to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
Thomas' arrest has shocked the community and raised questions about the connection between social media and violent crime. Police are continuing to investigate the motive behind the murder.
