WASHINGTON, Neb. (AP) — A garbage truck driver has found a body at the landfill for the Omaha area.
Authorities say the driver spotted a limb or two in his rear-view mirror as he dumped his load around 6:30 a.m. Wednesday at the landfill southwest of Washington.
Douglas County Sheriff’s Capt. Steve Glandt says investigators know where the truck had been earlier that morning but declined to share the information. Glandt said the person hadn’t been dead long and was fully clothed. Glandt wouldn’t say whether the body was that of a male or female.
An autopsy has been scheduled for Thursday.
