Mysterious Pleas for Help Precede Grisly Discovery in Nebraska Chimney

Zachariah Andrews, a 29-year-old man who had been missing since September, was found dead in a chimney of a Nebraska home. His body was discovered after a maintenance worker investigated a foul odor and found human shoes dangling from the chimney. Andrews had a criminal history and was last seen alive on September 15. Mysterious screams for help were reported in the apartment building where he was found, but by the time police arrived, the screams had stopped. While authorities believe his death was accidental, an investigation is ongoing.
