Bryan Kohberger, the suspect in the November murders of four University of Idaho students, was pulled over twice while driving in Indiana on December 15, 2022, according to police in Indiana.
Kohberger, 28 years old, is accused of stabbing four college students at the University of Idaho in November 2022. The victims were Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Ethan Chapin and Xana Kernodle.
Kohberger's white Hyundai Elantra was one of the first clues that led to major developments in the case before he was identified as the suspect.
According to police in Indiana, at around 10:41 a.m. on December 15 an officer stopped a white Hyundai Elantra traveling just outside of Indianapolis.
The car was stopped for following another vehicle too closely.
As police confirmed, the body cam footage shows two men inside the car. The driver was identified as Kohberger, according to police.
The officer released the vehicle after a verbal warning for following another vehicle too closely.
Police said at the time of the traffic stop, information on the suspect for the Idaho crimes had not been released. The officer was not aware of any relation between the white Hyundai Elantra and the murder case.
WRTV reported that minutes after being stopped by police, the same white Hyundai was pulled over by an Indiana State Police officer for the same violation for following too closely.
The state trooper conducting the traffic stop was also wearing a body-worn camera.
The trooper discovered they had been stopped minutes before by police and released the men with a verbal warning, which can be heard in the video.
“I’m not going to give you guys another ticket or warning if you just got stopped. Just make sure you give yourself plenty of room, okay? It's all about how fast you're going," the officer said.
