Landshut, Germany - A man who climbed a spruce tree, tied himself to the trunk and shot himself dead has been discovered 29 years after the suicide, German police said Thursday. "It looks as if he meant to never be found again," said a police spokesman in Landshut, north-east of Munich, where a man exploring steep forest discovered human bones on the ground.
Police then found the rest of the skeleton tied in a thicket of branches 11 metres above ground level with a gun next to it. The victim was 69 when he vanished in the summer of 1980.
