Pittsfield — The Berkshire County District Attorney’s Office has released new suspect sketches relating to an over 40-year-old cold case.
According to a press release issued on Tuesday, August 30, back in April 1982 the State Police started an investigation of the disappearance of then 18-year-old Lynn Burdick. Burdick went missing at some point while working at night at the Barefoot Peddler’s Country Store on Route 2 in the Town of Florida.
The office and State Police have continued to investigate the case, with the focus on a separate attempted abduction that occurred earlier in the night, 13 miles away in Williamstown.
The office released sketches of the suspect, which evidence suggests is a white male, 5-foot-7 inches tall and is now approximately 70 years old. Case data suggests that the suspect has ties to Vermont.
Investigators ask that anyone with information contact the Berkshire State Police Detective Unit at 413-499-1112 or email the Massachusetts State Police Unresolved Case Unit at mspunresolved@pol.state.ma.us.
