DETROIT -- An 85-year-old former mob boss may be providing new clues as to where missing Teamsters boss Jimmy Hoffa is buried.

Tony Zerilli was in prison when Hoffa vanished from a Detroit area restaurant in 1975. But he's now telling our sister station, WDIV in Detroit, that he was told about Hoffa's whereabouts when he was released from prison.

The ailing Zerilli took a WDIV reporter to a field in Rochester, north of Detroit, where he believes Hoffa was buried.

WDIV reports that Zerilli has spoken with the FBI.
