The FBI said Thursday the fugitive father wanted for kidnapping his 7-year-old daughter in Boston may have cut her hair to make her look like a boy.
According to the FBI's
Web site, Clark Rockefeller, 48, may have dyed his hair to an orangey-red color and could also be traveling with a passport under the name of Michael Brown, one of Rockefeller's several aliases.
Agents believe that his daughter Reigh's hair may now be cut short so that she resembles a boy. They also say she wears prescription glasses.
Police believe Rockefeller may have planted false clues leading up to Sunday's kidnapping in the Back Bay to throw off investigators.
Rockefeller, 48, was last seen at Grand Central Terminal in midtown Manhattan on Sunday night with his daughter Reigh, hours after he was accused of snatching her during a supervised visit.
Officials have been dealing with a flood of false leads. Investigators in New York followed up on a 911 call that the girl was seen on a bus in Brooklyn, but the tip didn't pan out.
Police near Smyrna, Del., about three hours south of New York, said they received a report that the girl and her father were seen along Route 13 on Tuesday. Investigators canvassed the area and questioned drivers at rest stops, but didn't find any sign of the two.
Clark Rockefeller used at least four known aliases, and a spokesman for the Rockefellers has said there is no indication the fugitive is related to the famous family.
Rockefeller's ex-wife, Sandra Boss, was so concerned about her former husband's name changes that she asked a judge to restrict his access to their daughter.
