It is not clear how King managed to get on one of these tours, as it usually takes Three Days for an individual to be authorised on one of these trips, which are usually closely monitored.

An eyewitness on the same border tour described hearing The Soldier laughing loudly before making a run across The Border .

The United Nations Command, which operates the DMZ, said it believed The Soldier was now in custody of the North. A senior US commander said there had been no contact with The Soldier and The Incident was being investigated by US Forces Korea.
