Missing man found stuck on forest road in a diabetic emergency

A man listed as missing by the Navajo County Sheriff’s Office Saturday evening was found stuck in the mud and needing treatment for his diabetes. Officials say Patrick Riddle’s daughter called 911 to report her father overdue from a drive to Show Low. Several hours later he called his daughter and said he had broken down, but didn’t know where he was. A search was launched at which time a deputy located Riddles mud covered stuck truck on a remote forest service road. Riddle was having a medical emergency and was unable to communicate with the deputy. He was loaded into the deputy’s vehicle and driven to emergency personnel and then the hospital.
