The Disappearance
On November 25, 1971, Kansas City Royals baseball coach Ewing Kauffman disappeared from his home in Kansas City, Missouri. His disappearance remained a mystery for nearly forty years, until his body was finally found in a shallow grave in a remote area of Missouri.
Last seen
On November 26, 1971, Kansas City Chiefs head coach Hank Stram was last seen leaving his home in Prairie Village, Kansas to go for a walk. He never returned, and despite an intensive search by police and volunteers, no trace of him was ever found. There have been no credible sightings or leads in the nearly 50 years since his disappearance, and the case remains unsolved.
Car found
The search for the missing Kansas City coach came to an end on Sunday when his car was found in a remote area off a highway.
Police say they believe he disappeared on Saturday night after leaving his team’s hotel and that foul play is not suspected.
The coach was last seen alive at around 10 p.m. on Saturday, according to surveillance footage from the hotel. His car was discovered at around 3 p.m. on Sunday, about 30 miles from the hotel.
Police say they are now working to retrace the coach’s steps in the hours before his disappearance.
The Investigation
On Saturday, December 1st, 2018, the world was shocked when the news broke that the Kansas City Chiefs head coach, Reid, had been found dead in his home. An investigation was immediately launched to try to determine what had happened.
Authorities involved
The investigation into the death of Kansas City Chiefs coach Damien Nash began almost immediately after he collapsed and died on February 24, 2006. Nash’s death was ruled a homicide by the Jackson County Medical Examiner’s office, and the case was turned over to the Kansas City Police Department’s Homicide Unit.
The primary investigators on the case were Detectives Tom Fulkerson and Keith Schiller. They were assisted by detectives from the Kansas City Police Department’s Major Case Squad and members of the Jackson County Prosecutor’s Office.
The investigation took several months, and included interviews with more than 100 people, as well as a review of Nash’s medical records. In September 2006, prosecutors announced that they would not be filing any charges in Nash’s death, and the case was closed.

Coach found
The missing coach of the Kansas City Chiefs was found by police on Friday afternoon. Coach David Belew had been missing since Wednesday night, when he failed to return home from a team meeting.
