APD Homicide Unit is asking for any information that could help identify a man found deceased in a field.

The Amarillo Police Department Homicide Unit is asking for help identifying a male that was located in a field in the 6600 block of East I-40 on April 4, 2023.
 
The male was found in advanced stages of decomposition; however, is possibly a white male in his 40’s or 50’s. He wore dentures and had blondish gray hair and a full beard. He was wearing western style clothing, and his pants had a sharp crease from obvious starch. He was found in a sleeping bag and was wearing a unique necklace and had a very distinct backpack. The male was unable to be identified through facial recognition or fingerprints.
 
After an autopsy, no foul play is suspected.
 
Images have been attached of his clothing, backpack, and necklace.
 
If anyone is familiar with these items and can provide any information on the identity of the decedent, please contact the Amarillo Police Department Homicide Unit at 806-378-9468.
