Barn Is Destroyed, but Still No Hoffa
- Share via
It took about three hours for a 75,000-pound excavating machine to gobble up a barn as part of the FBI’s search for the remains of former Teamsters boss Jimmy Hoffa.
The barn’s destruction was the most dramatic moment in the week since dozens of FBI agents descended on a horse farm 30 miles from Detroit.
The farm once was owned by a Hoffa associate and is not far from where the former labor leader vanished in 1975.
