No joke -- Hoffa may be buried in Roseville

Police plan to take soil samples at a Roseville home's driveway on Friday after a man tied the location to the disappearance of former Teamsters leader Jimmy Hoffa.
Roseville Police Chief James Berlin is telling the media that  his department received information from an individual who saw something on the day Hoffa disappeared in 1975. 
WDIV-TV Channel 4 is reporting that a man dying of cancer told police he saw a body being buried at the Florida Street home hours after the longtime Teamsters union president was assumed to have been killed. 
The police chief says the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality recently used ground scanning radar to check out a spot under the driveway and found "an anomaly."
Berlin says the soil samples secured on Friday will be sent to a forensic anthropologist at Michigan State University to check for human remains.
 Hoffa's remains have never been found, though the location of his body has been a four-decade mystery that has led law enforcement officials to numerous locations across the country.
Florida Street is located just west of Gratiot and north of 12 Mile Road, very near Roseville City Hall and the Police Department.
