Newsflash..... Surprise Find in a Florida Canal Sheds a Clue on a 1978 Missing Persons Case

1969 Dodge Coronet was found in a canal at the intersection of the 595 and the I 75 about 10 miles West of Fort Lauderdale, it has been there since two teens disappeared in 1978, after leaving a concert.
Atchison went to a concert with Null, and, like so much in this case, there are conflicting reports about the show, Amaya said.
From there, Atchison reportedly had friends over to his house for a "get-together" since his parents were out of town, his sister said. "Wade and Dana got into an argument and my brother jumped into the car to blow off steam and she ended up jumping in the car with him," Amaya told ABC News.
A second search of the Florida canal where a 1969 Dodge was found has led to the discovery of human remains at the scene, police said today.
Harry "Wade" Atchison, 19, and his friend Dana Null, 15, were last seen driving away from his home in his car on the night of Oct. 7, 1978, and the first break in the case in decades came when his car was found on Wednesday.
Now, a dive team has recovered bones, police said, though they need to be tested by the medical examiner's office before any DNA matches can be confirmed. Atchison's sister, Donna Amaya, told ABC News that the investigator said the bones were from the lower half of person's body, "like a femer," but she was not given any further information.
Amaya said the discovery of her brother's car was when she truly believed that her brother was dead, and now after the discovery of remains, "it's a whole different ballgame."
Both Atchison's parents and Null's parents have since died but both have sisters who were notified when the car was discovered by a sanitation worker in the town of Sunrise on Wednesday.
