At-Risk missing person Donald Hunter has been located and the Silver Alert has been cancelled.
On Sunday, February 19, 2017 just before 2pm, the Fresno County Sheriff’s Department received a call from subjects in the area of Black Rock Reservoir. The witness reported finding Hunter’s Jeep with a subject inside of it. Working with the California Highway Patrol, deputies from the Fresno County Sheriff’s Department located the vehicle with a deceased male inside. Because of the remote location the Jeep was located in, rescuers had a difficult time getting to it. On February 20, 2017, the Fresno County Coroner’s Office confirmed that the deceased male was in fact Donald Hunter. The Sheriff’s Department is investigating this incident.
We would like to thank the Fresno County Sheriff’s Department, CHP, and the residents who phoned in to provide tips on Hunter’s possible whereabouts.
