Police in Michigan have made two arrests involving a headless man found in a Michigan field under snow in 1997.
More than 20 years after the headless man was found, two people were arrested on Tuesday, according to FOX 2 Detroit. The United States Marshals Service found the suspects, both brothers, in Ohio.
The brothers who were arrested aren’t being identified because they haven’t been formally charged with a crime.
On Nov. 19, 1997, a farmer in Michigan’s Lenawee County Blissfield Township found the headless body with its hands also missing.

The victim left Texas for a trip to Chicago and was supposed to come back. The case went cold after police weren’t able to identify the victim because of the missing head and hands.
Officials said that more individuals may be charged in the case for assisting with the crime or its cover-up.
