Keith Robert Anderson, a 22-year-old white man, disappeared from a horse barn in Hot Sulphur Springs, Grand County, Colorado on February 5, 1984. His idling truck was found near the barn with his German Shepherd waiting in the back, and traces of his blood were discovered inside the barn. Witnesses reported hearing several gunshots around the time he vanished. The case was classified as a homicide even though no body has been found.

David Russell Buttel emerged as the prime suspect. He boarded horses at the same barn and admitted being there the day Anderson disappeared, saying Anderson got a bloody nose and walked off. A witness reported seeing something wrapped in blankets in the back of Buttel’s truck near Anderson’s ranch. The barn owner’s .44 caliber magnum, kept under his truck seat, was reported stolen the day after the disappearance; a .44 caliber bullet was later recovered from Anderson’s horse, which died two days after the disappearance. The missing handgun turned up four months later on Ute Pass but the barrel was too rusted to match the horse’s bullet; Buttel declined a polygraph and then left the area. No arrests have been made.

Does anyone have information about Keith, the barn, or sightings of David Buttel around that time?
