OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Officials say the body of a 75-year-old Nebraska man who had been reported missing earlier this week has been found near the Douglas County landfill.
The Douglas County Sheriff's Office says in a news release that a landfill employee called sheriff's deputies Tuesday morning to report a man's body near the entrance of the landfill, which is north of Bennington.
Arriving deputies found the body of 75-year-old Edward Manheimer, of Omaha, on the ground near his vehicle.
Manheimer had been reported missing Sunday.
Officials are investigating Manheimer's cause of death, but say foul play is not suspected.
