Federal authorities had been searching a national forest in Idaho after a sighting of a man who matched Decker's description; however, it's now been confirmed as a case of mistaken identity

The U.S. Marshals Service Greater Idaho Fugitive Task Force said on Wednesday afternoon that authorities located the man multiple witnesses saw at the Sawtooth National Forest, who was believed to be Travis Decker.

U.S. Marshals confirm the man spotted in Idaho's Sawtooth National Forest was not Travis Decker, who is wanted for the murders of his three daughters in Washington.
