On August 2, 1996 unidentified human remains were found in a lake in the 3500 block of S.W. 29th Ave., south of State Road 84, in unincorporated Broward County. The victim was a white male between 5'2" and 5'4". He weighed 100-110 pounds. He had dark hair and was estimated to be in his early 20s. The body was decapitated and partially dismembered, so it was particularly difficult to identify. He had a vertical scar just below the knee on his right leg. If you have information about the identity of this victim or the circumstances of their death, please call the Broward Sheriff's Office at (954) 831-8900 or, to remain anonymous, contact Broward Crime Stoppers at (866)-493-8477.
