Kittitas County, WA - 11/28/2021 - 30-year old Andrew Morgan was today found deceased near where his car was found abandoned last week.
Today, Sunday 11/28, search teams found the body of 30-year old Andrew Morgan less than half a mile from where his vehicle was found abandoned after a minor accident on the Bullfrog Rd off-ramp at I-90 milepost 80, 12 days ago. Andrew was found with the help of a multi-county Search and Rescue team including numerous search canines, one of which led the teams to his body. Andrew was located in a swampy, wooded area south of the freeway, in the same direction his phone and some clothing had been abandoned. There is no evidence of foul play at this time. The Kittitas County Coroner’s Office will conduct the medical investigation into Mr. Morgan’s cause of death. His family has been notified of his passing. The Kittitas County Sheriff’s Office appreciates the compassion and concern the public has shown for Andrew Morgan’s family during this difficult time and the many tips and suggestions provided. We are grateful to all the volunteers that made it possible to find Andrew for his family. And we, along with our whole community, extend our deepest sympathies for their loss.
