MYSTERY COLD CASE FILE MAY BE CLOSED

Jimmy Hoffa

(FOXNEWS) – A nonprofit group of cold case crime investigators
believes it has located a site in
Milwaukee where former Teamsters 
Union President Jimmy Hoffa is buried.

The Case Breakers said a "a dying police sergeant’s scribbled instructions on an ace of spades" playing card helped lead
their yearslong investigation to the old site of Milwaukee County
Stadium in Wisconsin, according to a Wednesday
press release.

The alleged burial site is next to the current Milwaukee Brewers
stadium, American Family Field (below) where they believe Hoffa’s
body lies in a spot under where the demolished stadium’s third-
base line previously stood.

An Australian scientist says he has uncovered the mystery behind
the notorious Bermuda Triangle, known for its urban legends and
tales of puzzling ship and plane disappearances in the western
North Atlantic.

Situated between Florida, Bermuda and Puerto Rico, this stretch
of sea is prone to quickly changing weather patterns, varying sea
levels and complicated navigational realities that have given it an ominous alternative name — the Devil’s Triangle. (FOX NEWS)
