Eight hours later, the hitchhiker met Eddie and Pauline Olsen when “his” car had trouble; they invited him into their home. He told them he was Philip Fraser and wanted to sell his car for a plane ticket. They refused to buy it and he drove off, never to be seen again. Philip’s car was found 300 miles (482 km) from the Olsen’s home and Philip’s body was found six weeks later in a gravel turnaround.
