FOSSIL (AP) — Searchers in central Oregon’s Ochoco National Forest say they have found footprints believed to be those of missing camper Tyson Schrade (SHRAD-ee) and followed them for about a mile.
About 30 searchers from the U.S. Forest Service and Wheeler, Crook and Deschutes counties are looking for the 27-year-old Schrade, reported missing Saturday by members of the Rainbow Family camping in the area.
Search officials say his family has arrived from northern California to help. Schrade has a Mowhawk-style haircut and was last seen wearing a train conductor’s hat. Search directors say he may suffer from medical conditions causing hallucinations and delirium. |
