Huron. County Crown
,Attorney William Cochrane
conceded after the jury ren-
dered its decision that "it will
likely remain a mystery' how
4 the man carne to the spot,where
he was Arun over.
The inquest was told by
Constable James Rogers of the
Exeter detachment of the
provincial police that he has
"no idea" ho w M`r. Schilhe
carne to be on the roadway
0* despite interviews with 40
persons and more than 200
ho4trs of police work on the
case.
Even coroner Or. Charles
Walla& of Zurich said there is
confusion surrounding the
man's movements prior to his
death and "the main problem
remains is how Doug Schitbe's
body came to be on the high-
way."
Two westbound drivers
i" testified they ran over an object
on the road 'which they first
believed to be an animal.
Cameron Mingay, 23. a
university student from
Toronto, testified he, was
leaving Hensal at about 4:40-
a.m. nth his girl -friend Jane
Zurbrigg 23, on their way from
Toronto to her parents' cottage
near St. Joseph along Lake
Huron when he was forced to
swerve to avoid an object in the
westbound lane.
He said the right front tire of
his vehicle °'thumped". across
the object in the middle of the
road but he continued west-
ward looking for a farmhouse
with lights on to find a
telephone to report the ob-
struction on the road to police.
Mr. Mingay said he found a
telephone in Zurich -- about 10
miles further down the high-
way.
He said it was not until the
next morning that he was in:
formed i3r police that it was a
body he had struck.
He said he was "confused"
when he struck tile object and
while it might have had a
human shape "I couldn't un-
derstand how' it could be 'a
body. I !find of wanted it to be
an animal..,
Miss Zurbrigg testified she
was dozing at the time but was'
jolted awake by the sound of the
car°striking the object. She said
she, too, couldn't believe it was
a body. She estimated it was
abort five minutes until they
found a telephone.
A second motorist, Charles
Hoffman of Hemlock, Mich..
testified he and his wife were in
the lead car of a three -car
procession, of U.S. tourists
returning to Port Huron from a
visit toTobermoi-y.
He said he struck an object
and immediately realized it
was a body. He stopped his car
and sent a member of his party
back to Hensalt to notify police.
Constable Rogers and
Constable William Wilson of the
Goderich detachment of the
OPP told the inquest that

have been 6n the ground and
the car ran over him. There
was a lack of damage to the
front end of the car.

Marshall said the call from Mr.
.Mingay was received at about
5:15 a.m. while a second call
