New Miner, Wisconsin (HNNUSA) - On opening day of deer hunting season, two hunters discovered a gruesome scene of a man's body in the woods. H. Nelson Goodson, who was out hunting with long time friend Jose B. Zamora just outside New Miner, near 7th St. and 20th Ave. inside deep in the woods came upon a lifeless body of a man missing his upper part of his head. On the road nearby, they noticed a blue Ford Ranger truck.
They immediately wrote down the license plate PH 1631 and information of the truck and headed out of the woods to report the find. The area is a dead zone and cell phones don't get a signal.
The body was found about 1:15 p.m. in an area known as the T section where a road meets a dead end and another road crosses East and West, according to Zamora. Goodson said, they went to the Boondocks Tavern in New Miner and called the Juneau County Sheriff's Office. Deputy Jason Graves responded to the call and both Goodson and Zamora took Deputy Graves to the site where the body was discovered. Another deputy arrived at the scene and began to take photos of the scene.
Goodson said, the victim wasn't wearing any blaze orange indicating the body must have been in the woods before Saturday. The truck and a man had been reported missing, but wouldn't say for how long, according to a source in the Juneau County Sheriff's Office. The victim was not from the area and his name has not been released. The Juneau County Sheriff's Department continues with the investigation.
The unidentified victim was reported missing since November 5 in Wood County. He was found in the Armenia township woods near New Miner, according to the Woods County Sheriff's Office who also joined the investigation along with the Juneau County Sheriff's Office and the Juneau County Coroner's Office.
The Wood County Sheriff's Office were notified in early November that Charles E. Davis Sr., 56, from the Town of Saratoga had been missing driving a blue Ford Ranger 1996 truck with Wisconsin plates PH 1631 from the area. The sheriff's department has not confirmed, if Davis was the victim found in Juneau County on Saturday afternoon.
Goodson and Zamora were allowed to leave the area after giving their account and statements of the unfortunate discovery to Deputy Graves.
Zamora and Goodson expressed their condolences, deep sorrow and regret in the untimely loss to family members and friends of the victim.
Jose B. Zamora
