I can't believe they don't know who ? is. They have his car on videotape at the hospital. The security guard there saw his profile as he drove by, he said he was clean shaven and had dark hair. They got the license plate of 1 of the 2 cars but didn't say which one and never released it for some reason, at one time they were saying they were thinking about releasing it.

The milkman saw the guy in his gray Honda or Nissan with a license plate that read "266 RDA on early morning Jun 3 in Federal Heights, wearing a white baseball cap matching the original description given by police (I think) and he got part of the license plate number. Then Moul saw him across the street from the his shop when Ricce waved to him, and he was again I believe wearing the white baseball cap.

? was also seen by Chad Woodruff who said the following. "Once I got to that tree, I found some footprints and I followed them and I took about three steps before I saw a guy with a white hat and white shirt," Woodruff said. "I just hid myself and followed him for a little while. I was totally by myself."

They've got 4 witnesses, the hospital security guard, the milkman, Moul, & Woodruff to put together a composite sketch. There surely aren't enought ex-cons in SLC for them not to know who this guy is, they must fear they would endanger Elizabeth by bringing him in.

This description was given on Jun 6 - Police described the suspect as a dark-haired white male, roughly 5 feet 8 inches tall. He is described as soft-spoken, and was last seen wearing white pants, a white cap and a tan, denim-type jacket.

More I didn't know from Jun 5 - Police described the suspect as a dark-haired white male, roughly 5 feet 8 inches tall. The man did not call Elizabeth by name and did not appear familiar with the house, police told The AP.

Complete Chad Woodruff story:

Among those leads was the report Thursday evening by a volunteer helping in the search of Emigration Canyon who said he saw a man wearing clothing matching that of the suspected kidnapper. The man was bent over, as though looking through the brush or trying to wipe away footprints, the volunteer said.

The volunteer, Chad Woodruff, said he saw the man after following some footprints that started at a tree that had drawn his attention.

"Once I got to that tree, I found some footprints and I followed them and I took about three steps before I saw a guy with a white hat and white shirt," Woodruff said. "I just hid myself and followed him for a little while. I was totally by myself."

He said he contacted his brother by radio, and the police were called in. But by then, the man had fled.

Another searcher reported hearing gunshots shortly afterwards.

Salt Lake County sheriffs closed the canyon and set up a perimeter around it, and searching from a helicopter with an infrared sensor. The FAA restricted the airspace above the canyon

All they spotted from the air were several deer, and county sheriff's deputies and volunteers resumed the ground search at 6 a.m., local time.

They have his car on videotape at the hospital.

I suspect that they may also have a video tape from the Phillips 66 station across from the mechanic's shop. It was fairly modern and probably has a taping system for inside and out.
