St. George police investigating possible homicide

St. George police are investigating a possible homicide after a wellness check led to them discovering a body.

Police say they were dispatched after the manager of a local Denny's contacted them saying their 38-year-veteran cook had not been seen since last Thursday and he is known for having an impeccable attendance record.

Police entered the man's apartment home to find him dead last Friday, which the manager and authorities say appeared suspicious since the man's vehicle was not in its usual parking spot.

Yesterday, St. George police confirmed the case is being investigated as a homicide and they're seeking a possible suspect connected to the case named Joshua Huntsman.
