US Marshals call off hunt for ‘killer dad’ Travis Decker in Idaho after false-alarm sighting
The US Marshals task force has called off the search for alleged killer dad Travis Decker in Idaho after a reported sighting some 500 miles from where his young daughters were found suffocated to death.
Federal, state and local cops descended on Sawtooth National Forest in central Idaho after according to KIRO-TV.
But feds located the man on Wednesday afternoon and spoke with him — and determined he is not Decker. The hiker was described as “cooperative,” the outlet reported.
Authorities in Washington state have conducted a widespread manhunt for Decker, a US Army veteran, since June 2 when his three daughters — Paityn, 9, Evelyn, 8, and Olivia, 5 — were found murdered at Rock Island Campground, about 55 miles east of Seattle.
