Ernest Wright
The Idaho County Sheriff’s Office says family members found the body of 65-year-old Ernest Wright of Warren on Saturday on a U.S. Forest Service road about 3 miles from Warren Summit. Officials say Wright succumbed to his injuries at the scene of the crash.
Officials say Wright went hunting Friday but didn’t return, causing family and friends to start a search that lasted through the night. They alerted authorities Saturday morning that Wright was missing.
The sheriff’s office called in a helicopter, but family members found Wright before it arrived. (AP)
