Case Information
At approx. 9:42 a.m. on March 25, 1986, Sioux City Police
responded to a report of a man down under a bridge of an
abandoned river channel near Marx Trucking at 220 S. Lewis Blvd.
Marx employees had observed smoke and a noxious odor coming from
the area the day before at approximately 5 p.m. Investigators
located the body of man — believed to be between 40-50 years of
age — burned beyond recognition, with a gas can located between
the victim’s legs.
The subject wore white cotton gloves, a brown western shirt,
blue jeans, blue cotton socks and tan western boots.
The decedent’s possessions also included a tube of contact
cement.
The death is believed to have been caused by thermal injuries
suffered during an act of self-immolation (setting one’s self on
fire). The body was found doused with gasoline. The decedent’s
blood type was determined to be A+.
The Sioux City Police did obtain dental records from the
victim’s teeth, which have been compared to numerous missing
persons across the country.
As of this date, the subject’s identity is unknown and the case
remains open.
