  • Dangerous Desert Mountains Complicate Search for Missing General with UFO Ties

    Dangerous Desert Mountains Complicate Search for Missing General with UFO Ties
    Mar 20 2026
    3 weeks since the disappearance of retired Air Force general William Neil McCasland, authorities say they have little clues and no video footage from the night he vanished. In this special edition of Reality Check: Investigators, NewsNation Correspondent Alex Caprariello reports on the ground talking to hikers. Including one who expressed frustration at what he feels is a lack of a robust search effort, telling NewsNation "I feel like I'm the only one out here looking."
