Law enforcement began looking for a body after Beatrice Police got a tip July 4, 2019, from an informant about a shooting three days earlier at the park. First, they found Trey Saathoff's Kia Rio, which was said to have been involved, and found brownish-red stains in the backseat, shattered glass on the floor and a passenger window covered in tape. Saathoff took a Jefferson County deputy and Nebraska State Patrol trooper to where he said the shooting happened, and they found four spent 9 mm shell casings there. Investigators then were able to track down surveillance camera footage in the area that captured Saathoff's Kia and a Honda with Texas plates. The Honda, later found in Kansas, had been stolen out of Midland County, Texas.
