Human Remains Surfacing As Lake Mead Water Levels Drop
Newsy
After a decades-long drought, the reservoir that 40 million people in six states depend on is now only about 30% full.
As Lake Mead on the Arizona-Nevada border becomes more shallow, the mystery is deepening.
In the last few days, the receding waters have exposed the remains of two people long hidden.
One was discovered on May 1 in a rusted-out barrel. Las Vegas homicide detectives say the victim died of a gunshot wound. And based on their clothing and shoes, likely back in the 1970s or 80s.
