A Florida man reported missing while visiting Arizona last month was recently found dead in the Gila River Indian Community.
Keith Edwards, 67, was reported missing on June 12 in the Town of Gilbert after he left a residence near Cooper and Warner roads on foot and failed to return, according to Gilbert police.
A Safe Alert was issued following Edwards’ disappearance since law enforcement officials were concerned for Edwards’ health.
On June 24, a body was found south of Gilbert in the Gila River Indian Community. Police said the body was identified as Edwards.
No signs of foul play nor suspicious circumstances have been observed in relation to Edwards’ death.
“Our hearts are with Keith’s family, friends, and loved ones during this difficult time,” the police department wrote in a statement.
