Yes, that was my first thought as well. Wheeler may have simply passed out in the dumpster when along came the trash truck. Those automatic arms picked up the dumpster and dumped the contents into the truck, whereupon Wheeler got squashed and finally dumped in the landfill.
Please read the thread. The dumpster was in Newark. He was wandering the streets of Wilmington. Sheesh!
I’ve read about three articles this morning so far. The cops in Newark said it’s a homicide and they aren’t revealing the cause of death yet.
Here’s a video of him, disoriented and carrying his shoe, inside the parking garage where his car wasn’t parked afterall.
