Colorado man has been missing since Chargers-Broncos game

A Colorado man has not been seen since meeting up with friends during halftime at Thursday’s Chargers-Broncos game. Paul Kitterman, 53, attended the game with his son and two friends.

“He’s absolutely nowhere to be found,” Tia Bakke told 9 News. Bakke and her boyfriend drove to the game with Kitterman and his son, Jarod Tonneson. It is a two-hour trip from Kremmling, Co., to Denver. Kitterman was not the driver, so he did not have a car at the stadium. He was reportedly not carrying a cell phone or credit cards, and had about $50 in cash.

Bakke and her boyfriend had seats in a different area of the stadium. They met up at halftime, and Bakke told 9 News that as they said goodbye Kitterman said he’d see them after the game.

Shortly after, Tonneson called to say his father never returned to their seats. It is unclear whether Tonneson went with his father at halftime to see Bakke and her boyfriend. Regardless, according to Fox 31, Tonneson told Bakke that he’d used the restroom and his dad wasn’t at the seats when he got back.

According to 9 News, 

After the game, she says they scoured the stadium and called security and police, in addition to jails and hospitals in the area… Bakke said Kitterman does not have medical problems and hasn’t had any issues with drugs or other dangerous activity in the past.

Tonnesson told Fox 31, “We were looking everywhere in parking lots, trees, bushes, anywhere we could think of.”

It was the first game the two attended this year. The family filed a missing persons report, and Denver police said that there is no reason to suspect foul play. The department is asking that anyone with information contact them immediately.
