A barrel just floated up from Lake Mead with a body in it dressed in 1970s clothing. He was shot multiple times. I wonder if this business owner it the person in the barrel?

Here is the details on the body I-Team: Body found in barrel in Lake Mead may date back to 1980s, more likely to appear as water recedes, Las Vegas police say

I'd say it's certainly a possibility. I wonder how many missing men from the Las Vegas area there were in the 70's.

I saw only two men from the 1970s on our missing 1970s forum. There has to be more. I need to get a newspaper archive subscription.

Vincent's case is not entered here but he was shot, however he was allegedly buried. Doubtful it's him in the barrel but he's still out there somewhere.

Lake Mead also borders Arizona and is w/in about 60 miles from border of CA.

I've been poking around a little in newspaper archives - my subscriptions are not inclusive of Las Vegas papers. I'll keep it up and post anything that I may find of interest.
