WY: Missing Hunter’s Body Found in Wyoming Mountains

September 16, 2018

From USNews.com

Searchers in Wyoming have found the body of a man who went missing while hunting.

Washakie County Sheriff Steve Rakness says Richard Morris Rush, of Worland, apparently crashed his all-terrain vehicle. Foul play is not suspected.

The Northern Wyoming Daily News reports Rush was camping in the Bighorn Mountains. Family and friends began to worry when he didn’t return home Sept. 9.

Searchers began looking for Rush on Wednesday. They found his pickup truck hunting gear and camper but not his ATV. Searchers found his body Friday.

An autopsy is pending.
