Aruba Police Search for Man Who Anonymously Gave Tip; A midnight jogger

According to the AP, the Aruban authorities are searching for a late night jogger who may have information into the case of Natalee Holloway’s disappearance.

Authorities are searching for a man who anonymously called a hot line with information in the case of missing U.S. teen Natalee Holloway but never made contact again, police said Friday.

The man called a few days after Holloway disappeared and claimed to have seen something, said police spokesman Edwin Comenencia. Police want him to provide sworn testimony about what he says he saw, Comenencia said.

The man told the hot line operator he lived near the Marriott Hotel – around the area where Holloway was last seen – and often went jogging there late at night, police said. Comenencia declined to say what the man claimed to have seen or how long police have been looking for him.

“I can’t say why, but we need his statement,” Comenencia said. “The problem is we don’t know who he is.”
