Colorado — In a development that has left both residents and investigators stunned, a local witness has come forward claiming to have seen Andrew Porter — the 25-year-old hunter found dead in the woods — walking alone on a nearby street just two days after his death was officially confirmed.
According to reports, the witness, a local store owner, initially thought he was seeing someone who merely resembled Porter — until CCTV footage from outside his shop appeared to show a man matching Porter’s exact build, clothing, and gait.
“It was him — I swear it was,” the witness told reporters. “He looked pale, like he hadn’t slept in days… but it was Andrew. I’d seen him before.”
Investigators reviewing the footage reportedly confirmed that the timestamp on the video was accurate and taken 48 hours after Porter’s time of death as listed in the autopsy report. The clip, described by officials as “short but disturbing,” allegedly shows the man walking unsteadily along the roadside before turning sharply into a wooded area — after which the camera abruptly loses sight of him.
Law enforcement sources have not publicly confirmed the man’s identity, but one investigator admitted the footage was “difficult to explain.”
“We are not ruling anything out at this stage,” the source said. “It could be a look-alike — or something else entirely.”
The bizarre claim has reignited online speculation surrounding the mysterious deaths of Andrew Porter and his hunting partner, whose bodies were found with unusual burn patterns and unidentified metallic fragments beneath the skin.
Authorities are now conducting a digital and forensic analysis of the CCTV footage to determine whether any image manipulation or timestamp tampering occurred.
The case that once seemed to end in tragedy has now taken a disturbing new turn — one that raises a question few dared to ask:
If Andrew Porter was truly dead… who, or what, did that camera capture?
