According to the document, on the night Huber went missing, he was hanging out with some friends at his repair shop in the evening, and among those there was Tschoertner. After an argument took place between Huber and another person there, Tschoertner left.
Surveillance video from the nearby high school captured Tschoertner later returning to Huber's shop in his flatbed tow truck. After about
20 minutes, he leaves with an object wrapped in a tarp in the back of the truck, "an object consistent in size with a human corpse," according to the document. It’s later stated this tarp was taken from one used to cover cars at the shop.
