    May 15 2023
    In March of 2008 an early morning call came in to 911 from an unknown caller. The man gave the operator an address with instruction to send police out there immediately then hung up. As police are dispatched to the address 911 receives another call about a single car crash on I-80. Once police realize that both calls are related it leads them to a bone chilling that left an entire town in shock.
