Wisconsin Dells authorities found the body of a missing 37-year-old New Berlin man in the Wisconsin River Tuesday morning. Haas was last seen around midnight Jan. 1 in the city's downtown. Wisconsin Dells Police Chief Nicholas Brinker said that "foul play is not suspected" in a news release. Wisconsin Dells police received a welfare check request around 4 p.m. New Year's Day for Haas. Police searched for Haas that evening and the next day by pinging his cellphone data. The search led them to a "wooded area" along the Wisconsin River, where they used a police K9 and a drone.
