RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - A legally blind hiking magazine editor who went missing along the Appalachian Trail in Virginia has been found in good condition.
Authorities say 41-year-old Kenneth Knight of Ann Arbor, Mich., was found around 5 p.m. Saturday. He was last seen on Sunday and friends had reported him missing when he failed to meet up with a group he was hiking with and then missed his flight home on Wednesday.
Knight is a production editor for Backpacking Light magazine. Backpacking Light chief executive officer Ryan Jordan says Knight set a fire to attract attention, then was met by firefighters who were responding to the brush fire. It was several miles from where he was last seen.
