Cottonwood Police Cancel Silver Alert For Missing 66-Year-Old Man, Found Deceased Near His Vehicle

The Cottonwood Police Department has canceled their Silver Alert for a missing 66-year-old Cottonwood man, who was last seen leaving work June 10th. It was reported that Robert Coody didn’t attend work the following day and hadn’t been home for several days to care for his animals. A Silver Alert was issued state-wide, but still search efforts were unsuccessful. Then on August 8th, YCSO deputies and Clarkdale Police officers responded to a call from a citizen who had found a vehicle and a deceased man near the vehicle near Sycamore Canyon Road. YCSO later discovered the deceased man was believed to be Coody. The Yavapai County Medical Examiner’s Office assisted in the investigation and no foul play is suspected.
