While authorities believe the gunshot wound was self-inflicted, they don't know if it was an accident or suicide. Investigators believe the man was well off because of the gold dental work and the contact lenses, which were unusual for the time. The contact lenses were traced to a Chicago manufacturer and fitted by an Illinois physician, but there are no records of the buyer. The rifle was sold in Fort Wayne, Indiana in 1939. The brass key hasn't been matched to any location. The dental work has yielded no matches. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Investigators If you have any information about this case please contact: Pennsylvania State Police Troop G 814-623-6133 You may remain anonymous when submitting information.
