The male was described as in his late 40’s to mid-’50s, mostly bald, 6’ – 6’3” tall, wearing a grey tank top, jeans, and having tattoos across his shoulders and neck area.
The female was described as approximately the same age, shoulder-length blonde hair, 5’5” – 5’7” tall, wearing a blue blouse, and jeans.
