Idaho murders - latest: Moscow police seek footage of ‘two areas of interest’ as details of 911 call emerge

Video shows mystery man with slain Idaho students

Investigators have confirmed that the mystery 911 call alerting police to the four murdered University of Idaho students was not made by their killer.

Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin were stabbed to death inside an off-campus home in the early hours of 13 November.

Hours later, police responded to a 911 call for an “unconscious individual” and found the victims dead on the second and third floors.

More than one week on from the killings, investigators continue to be baffled by the case, with no arrests made and no suspects identified. On Sunday, police admitted that they have no idea if the killer is still at large within the community or has fled the area.

Officials are also still refusing to reveal who called 911 but did provide new details about the mystery call.

Police said that it was made from the cellphone of one of the two other roommates who were home at the time of the killings but left unharmed. The roommates and “other friends” were present in the home when the call was made, police said.
