"House of Paprikash” at the corner of Exchange and Main streets, was last
seen at about 8 p.m. Tuesday at a downtown bar where he had cashed his
paycheck. Police declined to identify
the bar.
Lower said the victim's family had last seen
him Tuedsay morning when he left for work.
He said Morris' wallet was not found at the scene and indicated that
"robbery could be the motive, but we are not sure."

1:30 p.m. The car was parked on Bass
