Search for missing man leads to discovery of other human remains

LAS VEGAS (KSNV) — Miles down the Lava Butte dirt road into a desert wash, Red Rock Search and Rescue is working to find a missing man.

Boulder City Detective Ron Miller said he knows Joseph Mackanos was headed to the Henderson DMV when he disappeared on Jan. 17. Mackanos car was discovered ten days later in a wash in Lava Butte East of Wetlands Park. His car was stuck on a rock in the desert, but he was nowhere to be found. Three weeks later, he is still missing.

"He had no water or food. He's a heavy smoker 69 years old," Smith said.

His daughter, Jamie Tisu, is heartbroken. She said he only wears a pair of shoes she gave her dad ten years ago, but that may be the clue these volunteers need to find him. She says her dad has dementia now but has fond memories of him. Tisu said he lived off the dollar menu at Burger King for 30 years, so she could live out her dream showing horses.

“He is the greatest human being I ever met. He literally went into the 70’s and never came out,” Tisu said.
