UTAH COUNTY, Utah — The Utah County Sheriff's Office said a body found Friday in American Fork Canyon may be that of a man missing for over two weeks.
Darren Przybyla, 38, was last seen on July 11 after telling family members he was going camping. A search was called off Wednesday due to the rugged terrain that would have been difficult for Przybyla, who used a cane or walker, to traverse.
According to a tweet from the sheriff's office, the body was found along Snake Creek Road above Tibble Fork Reservoir.

The unidentified body has been taken to the medical examiner.
