Brian and his childhood friend, DAVID TYLL, left their Saint Clair Shores, MI home to spend a weekend hunting near White Cloud, in northern MI, where Tyll's family had a cabin. In 2003, two brothers were arrested in connection with Ognjan and Tyll's disappearances. Witnesses came forward and reported seeing the brothers beating Ognjan and Tyll to death in the parking lot of the Linker's Lounge in Mio, MI. They then reportedly fed the missing men's bodies to pigs. Their bodies have never been recovered.
