Google Maps discovery: Street View uncovers THIS terrifying sight in Michigan pond

Google Maps is one of the most useful tools available on the internet, allowing people to visit all areas of the globe from the comfort of their own home. 

But as well as its informative qualities, the site also provides countless entertaining images.  

Alongside the ordinary looking residential streets and national parks is everything from the amusing to the downright bizarre. 

One particularly scary image shows a car submerged in a large pond. 

That is not all – the car holds a dead body inside. 

In 2015, the car was recovered from the pond in Michigan and the body of Davie Less Niles was discovered inside. 

The 72-year-old disappeared on October 11, 2006, after he was last seen at Jake’s Bar in Byron Township, Michigan, WOOD-TV reported at the time. 

His family revealed he had met a friend there but then left abruptly because he was dealing with the discomfort caused by cancer. 

In 2011, they lost all hope of finding him and published his obituary. 

It appeared online and read: “David Lee Niles, age 72, of Wyoming, passed away and only God knows the time and place.” 

But while decorating a tree for Christmas outside of Cook Funeral Home in Byron Centre, Brian Houseman was on a lift and spotted the submerged car. 

The car, with Davie’s body inside, is visible on Google Maps and had been for years. 

Brian contacted the Kent County Sheriff’s Office Dive Team who retrieved the vehicle from the pond and found skeletal remains on the driver’s seat. 

The pond is located about half a mile from where Davie was last seen. 

Authorities believed the body to be Davie’s because the vehicle was his and they also found his wallet in the car. 

No foul play was suspected and it is unclear what exactly happened to him.
