The vehicle and Manuel’s body were found there on May 11, 2020, triggering a multi-state homicide investigation led by the Omaha Police Department.

Two juvenile suspects were later taken into custody in Wyoming on charges of concealing a felony and conspiracy to conceal a felony; their names were not released because they are minors. The Omaha Homicide Unit asked anyone with information to come forward.
