Missing US Man May Be Lying In Volcano Crater

A grainy photo of the crater of the Volcán Rincón de La Vieja, Guanacaste, appears to show the body of man that could be that of David Gimelfarb, who has been missing since August 11 and all search efforts so far have failed to locate the man, dead or alive.

The Cruz Roja Costarricense (Red Cross), with the help of the park rangers, police and tourist guides, will this morning resume their efforts to locate the missing man, using the photo as a possible clue to the man's demise.

The photo is an aerial shot that appears to be of a man face down and arms extended in the volcano's crater.

Gimelfarb was last seen driving his rented vehicle and parking in the lot before going into the national park. The man was notice missing by park rankers and employees of the Hotel Guachipelín, alerting authorities.

Search teams included the use of US military helicopters "black hawk" and the British rescue team ResQglobal receiving a request from retired United States Secret Service Agent - and Senior Vice President of our Strategic Partner SOS Security Incorporated, Scott Alswang. See photo journal.

Last week the Cruz Roja decided to call off the search efforts, however, the Gilmfarb family never lost hope. David's father has been continuing the search efforts, while his mother is in a San José hospital suffering from a nervous breakdown due to her son's disapperance.
