Cause of death revealed in case of once missing Iowa trucker David Schultz
SAC CITY, Iowa (KCRG) – The once missing Iowa trucker found dead on a farm in rural Sac County about two months ago died from hypothermia related to acute meth intoxication, the Sioux City Journal reports.
The report, which cites a death certificate for David Schultz, says he ingested the drug, then died when he was exposed to the cold temperatures outside.
Schultz went missing in November 2023, sparking a massive search effort.
His body was found in April 2024 in the 1900 block of Union Avenue, which is close to the location his truck was found. It’s unclear why his body wasn’t recovered sooner.
