HUTCHINSON, Kan. — Two joggers were found safe after a two hour long search for them in the Sand Hills State Park last
night.
According to 911, the two runners apparently got disoriented in the park after dark and called 911 for help. That was around 9:30. Sheriff’s Deputies, Hutchinson and South Hutchinson Police and the Highway Patrol Airplane were all used in the search for the pair. They were eventually found in some thick brush with some scrapes, but otherwise uninjured.
The Sheriff’s department says the two jog at the park often, but this time misjudged how much time they had to run before darkness fell.
