IRON COUNTY, Utah – After several days of searching, a missing Cedar City man was found dead Saturday morning.

On Wednesday, the Cedar City Police Department announced it was searching for 35-year-old Eduardo Gutierrez-Nava, who went missing the previous day.

An investigation is underway, but authorities say they believe he lost control of his motorcycle and crashed, causing his death. It was not immediately known what day it happened.

“Our thoughts and prayers are with the family at this time and we offer our deepest condolences for their tragic loss,” the department said in a statement Saturday.
