COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KRDO) — UPDATE: Rescuers have suspended the search for the man who was reported lost.

The Colorado Springs Fire Department spokesperson said they reviewed security camera footage showing someone who looks like that man getting into a car and leaving Cheyenne Mountain State Park.

That video was recorded between 5:00 and 5:30 p.m. That's just a few minutes after other hikers called emergency responders about the man to report that he seemed disoriented.

Police have the license plate number for the car and will follow up to see if they can find the man.
