In a blockbuster development in the Natalee Holloway case, police have questioned a man who claims to have witnessed her rape and murder on a desolate beach.
And investigators in Aruba are seeking evidence the new witness says was left at the lonely crime scene that would reveal the DNA of the killer, The ENQUIRER has learned.
The stunning new twist in the case that has gripped America comes as Natalee’s family endures the pain of the anniversary of her disappearance on May 30 last year.
The witness is a 40-year-old Colombian construction worker who says he’s stayed silent until now because he’s living in Aruba illegally and feared deportation.
The Colombian was turned over to prosecutors by former U.S. Secret Service agent Art Wood, who’d interviewed him on the island in April after the witness contacted Natalee’s parents through an intermediary.
“He told me that the night Natalee vanished he had an argument with his wife, borrowed a friend’s car and drove to the beach near the lighthouse,” Wood told The ENQUIRER in an exclusive interview.
