VALLEY SPRINGS, Calif., April 29 (UPI) -- Police in Valley Springs, Calif., said they believe they found fingerprints and DNA evidence at the home of an 8-year-old girl who was stabbed to death.

Leila Fowler was found covered with stab wounds Saturday by her 12-year-old brother. The boy also found an intruder inside the family's home, and the man ran away.

Leila was later pronounced dead at a hospital. An autopsy is scheduled for Monday, CNN reported.

After a thorough search of the Valley Springs home, police said they think they found fingerprints and DNA evidence from the intruder, who they described as a white or Hispanic male with long gray hair, KCRA-TV, Sacramento, reported Sunday.

The man is 6 feet tall with a muscular build and was last seen wearing a black long-sleeved shirt and blue pants.

Calaveras County sheriff's deputies stepped up security at nearby schools and bus stops after the attack, CNN said.

Grief counselors were sent to Leila's elementary school and a candlelight vigil is planned for Tuesday, KCRA reported.

Dr James Watson said it is very important to make science appealing to young people

The Nobel Prize-winning scientist who co-discovered the structure of DNA 60 years ago has said Ireland cannot be a success in science unless it knows as much as other nations.

Dr James Watson, 86, said the investment made in research in Ireland over the past 40 years is beginning to pay off andthere are some very good scientists in the country.

He was asked about comments he made last month in San Diego, where he referred to ignorance being the curse of the Irish.

Dr Watson said what he meant was that historically Irish people lacked knowledge.

He said that he was not implying that Irish people were stupid.

Ireland just has to be good at technology, he said, and that takes a long time and requires a serious university system.

He said it is very important to make science appealing to young people.

Dr Watson, who is now engaged in cancer research, said he is convinced genetics will not lead to the discovery of a cure for cancer, but chemistry will.

On the level of investment in cancer research, he said he does not believe that too much is being spent on it.
