Missing Man Found in Chimney
Missing Man Found in Chimney. Louisiana Man Hadn't Been Seen Since 1984. Skeletal remains found in the chimney of an Abbeville, La., bank two months ago have been identified as those of a local man who hadn't been seen in 27 years.
The remains are those of Joseph W. Schexnider, who vanished at age 22 in January 1984, Abbeville police Lt. David Hardy told CNN. Schexnider's disappearance was noted after he failed to show up for a court hearing on a charge of possession of a stolen vehicle. When officers showed up at his home to take him in to custody, Schexnider's mother said he had fled to avoid arrest.
