Westport police are still searching for a suspect linked to the murder of jeweler Yekutiel Zeevi six weeks after his death. Zeevi, 65, was fatally shot Dec. 8 inside YZ Jewelers on Post Road East. Police have distributed wanted posters throughout the town and have reached out to the "America's Most Wanted" program for national attention, but admit the investigation is very complicated. "We haven't ruled anything out," said Westport Police Capt. Sam Arciola. "I think that that's important. I think we've looked at the possibility that he may have changed his appearance." Anyone with information is urged to call Westport police at 203-341-6080.Police: Leads diminishing 1 month after murder of Westport jewelerPolice release sketches of suspect in YZ Jewelers robbery
