Man Found in Tree in 1987 Identified? | Leeds News

from Leeds News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A mysterious man found dead in a tree in Coronation Wood in 1987 may finally be identified thanks to a new public tip-off. Authorities have been stumped for nearly 40 years, but fresh leads point to a man who frequented the Friary School swimming pool in Lichfield during the mid-80s — described as a friendly loner with a strong Eastern European accent, possibly Russian, and only two lower teeth. Investigators are now examining a key fob with the number six, linked to the pool’s lockers, and are asking anyone with memories or photos from that era to come forward. The case hinges on these small clues — and the public’s help could finally bring closure. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
