HOPTOAD JUNCTION, July 12 - A man's arm was found early this morning by the owner of the Beaumont Tavern, Sean Tooley, in an alley next to the bar. According to police, Mr. Tooley found the bloody limb behind a row of empty kegs at 4:20 am after he had locked up for the evening. Using fingerprints and a tattoo, "Yolanda," found on the bicep police have identified the arm as belonging to Steven Shapley, a 47-year old truck driver from Dover, New Hampshire. Only the arm was found; it is not known where the rest of Mr. Shapely is or whether or not he is still alive.
When shown a picture of the victim Mr. Tooley thought he had seen him drinking in the bar earlier that evening. Hoptoad Junction police chief Robert Brass added, "we're looking for a tall blonde who may have been with him in the bar." Several witnesses recall seeing a woman with Mr. Shapley, but descriptions of her were inconclusive.
According to a neighbor in New Hampshire, Earl Homesteader, Mr. Shapley worked for Kingdom Freight Lines as a truck driver. "I don't know him too well. He and his wife only lived here since March." Mr. Homesteader added that he assumed the woman living with Mr. Shapley was his wife, but he wasn't sure.
Local police are working with the State Police in West Virginia and New Hampshire and ask that anyone who may have information about the incident or Mr. Shapley's current whereabouts contact them at (123) 555-2006.
