ST. GEORGE — Police, family and friends are searching for 25-year-old Tyson Cook who went missing Wednesday morning in Orem and is considered endangered.
A sister of Cook’s said Friday that her brother suffers from a rare autoimmune disease called Hashimoto’s Encephalopathy and that he had not been feeling well at the time of his disappearance.
