At about 6.25 p.m. on 8 December 2004, Robert (‘Mark’) Woodland, aged 36 years, was found by a member of the public in the South Parklands. His body was located approximately 50 metres west of Sir Lewis Cohen Drive, Adelaide. A post-mortem examination found that Mr Woodland had been the victim of a serious assault that had taken place some days earlier at that location.
Mr Woodland’s vehicle, a blue Commodore sedan registration number SA WYZ-736 (image below), was located nearby in the car park of Veale Gardens. Police enquiries indicate that Mr Woodland left his home at Plympton Park in his vehicle about 9.00 p.m. on Saturday 4 December 2004. He did not return home or attend work and was reported missing on 6 December 2004.
Police believe that a member of the public saw Mr Woodland in the early hours of Sunday morning 5 December 2004. At that time, he was alone and did not appear to be in distress.
When Mr Woodland’s body was discovered, personal belongings including his keys, ANZ ATM card, RAA plastic sleeve and his jumper were missing.
Police would also like to speak to the driver or occupant(s) of a white dual cab utility parked on the western side of Sir Lewis Cohen Avenue on the morning of Sunday 5th December 2004.
