RYE, Colo. (AP) — Pueblo County authorities say a body found in rugged country southwest of Pueblo may be that of a hunter reported missing last weekend.
Sheriff Kirk Taylor says he believes it's the body of 53-year-old Ricky Greenhood of Rye, who failed to return Sunday from a hunting trip.
The body was found Wednesday by the Team 12 alpine rescue unit.
Taylor says teams will retrieve the body Thursday. An autopsy is planned.
Rye is 30 miles southwest of Pueblo and 125 miles south of Denver.
