New search for Teamster leader Jimmy Hoffa's body begins

Posted: Updated:
CHICAGO (FOX 32 News) -

A new search for the body of Teamster leader Jimmy Hoffa has begun.

He disappeared in 1975. Many believe the mob murdered Hoffa, but his body has never been found.

In 2006, police searched for his remains at a horse farm in Michigan. Police will search under a driveway at a home in Michigan on Friday staring with a dirt sample to test it for signs of human decomposition.

A dying man told them that in 1975, he watched as a body-sized black bag was buried there. There have been a half-dozen searches for his body since he vanished.

A radar scan does indicate there's something under the concrete.
