A nurse from Rogers who went missing on Sunday has been found safe in Searcy County.

KHBS/KHOG reports Stacy Worrall was last seen Sunday in the Richland Creek area of Searcy County, after reportedly going on a hike. The Richland Creek area is known for hiking and picnicking.

Charmaine Seaton with the Searcy County Department of Emergency Management says Worrall was located Tuesday morning. Seaton says Worrall was still in the Richland Creek area when she was found. She was reportedly in good condition.

The trail Worrall was on is very popular, Seaton says, but lacks cellphone service.

Search crews from Arkansas State Police, Arkansas Game and Fish, Arkansas Forestry and area search and rescue teams were all on the scene.
