Morrill County Attorney Travis Rodak said that a local farmer had been working Friday afternoon when he saw the barrel about 4 miles east of Bayard near County Road 104. He saw the barrel floating in the creek, and he thought it would make a good burn barrel, Rodak said. The farmer pulled the barrel, which was sealed shut, to shore. He opened it, and he sees what he thinks is a body, Rodak said.
Since the man's body was sealed in the barrel it was not possible to be an accident or suicide.
