Missing snowboarder found, arrested

SEATTLE – A 23-year-old snowboarder reported missing at Stevens Pass had spent the night at a friend’s apartment, but sheriff’s deputies arrested him Monday for an outstanding drunken-driving warrant.

The snowboarder became separated from his friends on the slopes Sunday, and when he couldn’t find them afterward, he mistakenly thought they had left without him.

He hitchhiked to Issaquah and stayed with a friend. Meanwhile, searchers worked late into the night looking for him.
