The FBI says it found no sign of the body of missing Teamsters boss Jimmy Hoffa under a bridge in New Jersey.

Agents conducted the latest search for the remains of Hoffa, who vanished in July 197, on land next to a former landfill that sits beneath the state’s Pulaski Skyway.

“Nothing of evidentiary value was discovered during that search,” said Mara Schneider, an FBI spokeswoman in Detroit.

“While we do not currently anticipate any additional activity at the site, the FBI will continue to pursue any viable lead in our efforts to locate Mr Hoffa.”
