CHEYENNE — Authorities say a missing western Oklahoma man has been found dead near Pampa, Texas.

Roger Mills County Undersheriff Darren Atha says 74-year-old Sam Hardy of Reydon (RAY'-dun) was found Wednesday afternoon by searchers in a helicopter.

Atha says Hardy was providing security at an oil field when his pickup truck apparently became stuck and he left on foot for help.

	Report Comment concernedpapa, Kiefer (5/7/2009 7:47:53 AM) I used to work in that area a lot and its a long walk to anywhere.
	Report Comment Bullhead, Nicut (5/7/2009 8:19:30 AM) So what exactly killed him?
	Report Comment billy8, Sand Springs (5/7/2009 8:51:20 AM) being 74 years old and alone in the wilderness could kill anyone who is not used to it.
	Report Comment Parrothead, (5/7/2009 12:22:40 PM) Visit the area several times a year during quail season. You are a long ways from anywhere out there. Cell reception is VERY spotty in the area, with miles of no service. About 2 miles east of Reydon, there is a small circle of about 20 yards that you get service, get out of that circle and your dead for a couple miles in any direction.
