Authorities on Wednesday were continuing to search for a suspect wanted in connection with the murder of a Nashua man last month.

The whereabouts of Stephan Daniel Peno, 20, were unknown, police said. He was last seen in Nashua around April 1. He’s 5 feet, 6 inches and 150 pounds. Police released these photos of him:

Police said Peno is wanted for falsifying evidence, robbery, and conspiracy to commit robbery related to the murder of Benjamin Marcum on March 12. Police arrested John Goff, 17, of Nashua, and charged him with first-degree murder in the case.

Here’s more information from police on Peno:

Peno has black hair and green eyes. He has several tattoos on his arms including: a skeleton/ghost and the letters “NFL” on his right arm, and the numbers “603” on his left arm. The two photos of Stephan Peno accompanying this news release were taken within the last year. Peno may have cut his hair short and shaved his facial hair to alter his appearance. Peno has acquaintances in both Nashua and Manchester, New Hampshire, where he is believed to be hiding.

Anyone with information is asked to call U.S. Marshals at 603-225-1632.

Peno has had previous dealings with police; he was charged with assault and robbery last year.
