TAMPA — Police released a sketch Friday of a man thought to be involved in an Oct. 2 home invasion murder at 904 N Bay St.

After talking with witnesses, detectives believe the man is 35 to 45 years old, African-American, possibly taller than 6 feet, 240 to 250 pounds, with a muscular build, light complexion, bald head and a clean-shaven face. He was last seen wearing a red and white striped, collared shirt.

The man was one of two people who barged into the home and immediately opened fire, striking resident Tyrone Speller twice, police said. A stray bullet that flew through a wall also struck Lydia Higgins. She was transported to Tampa General Hospital, where she died.

Police said investigators think the suspects targeted the house, but that Higgins was an innocent victim.

"My daughter's death is weighing heavy on my mind," Higgins' mother, Eddie Mae Walker, told police. "It is hard to even talk about what happened. Still, I hope that someone who has information about this tragic accident will speak up and help me get justice for Lydia."

Anyone with information about the suspect or the home invasion should contact Crime Stoppers toll-free at 1-800-873-TIPS (873-8477) or text "CSTB plus your tip" to 274637. Tipsters may be eligible for a reward of up to $3,000.
