A flight attendant believes she may have spotted Brian Laundrie at a hotel in Canada as he remains at large following his fiancée Gabby Petito's mysterious death.
In a video posted to TikTok on Wednesday, September 22, the user under the handle @cwlynn, said she was staying overnight at a hotel in Toronto on September 20 when she went downstairs to pick up a food delivery.
As she stepped outside to collect her delivery, she says she spotted a man who closely resembled Laundrie, who has not been seen since leaving his home in Florida on September 14.
The flight attendant described the man as appearing "flustered" as he walked out of the hotel. He then allegedly got back into his car and drove away with another man, reports The Sun.
She shared an image she took of the man she believes may have been Laundrie. The image shows a balding while male with prominent facial hair and a facemask strapped around his chin.
The woman said she also informed the hotel about the man's suspicious activity and likeness to Laundrie. Per The Sun, hotel staff reportedly told her: "He didn't know where he was going and he had the wrong hotel."
In the video, she shares the picture she reportedly took alongside an image of Laundrie from his Instagram page.
"I'm not sure if this looks like him or if I just fell too far down the rabbit hole," she said of the case.
"You can see the dip in his mustache, and the ears are bent down [in her photo], but my ears bend down when I wear a face mask," the woman added.
In a later clip, the TikToker claims that the man resembled Laundrie so closely it made her feel sick.
"It looked so much like him - it made me feel really nauseous because I've never seen him in person, like many of you haven't, and this is exactly how I imagined he would look," she went on.
"I did inform the hotel [that she thought it was Laundrie] and the employees at the hotel didn't have any idea about the case, which was concerning."
She continued by claiming that the hotel staff took down Laundrie's name and compared her photo and an image of Laundrie, reportedly concluding that he "did look pretty similar to Brian."
The TikTok user added that she sent the image to local media and reported the encounter to the FBI via their tips email.
