WASHINGTON – Witnesses tell a Phoenix area television station that Redskins free agent Tim Hightower was rescued after getting lost during a Thursday evening hike.

MyFoxPhoenix reports that Hightower and his wife, Krista, went for a walk on Camelback Mountain, but ended up getting lost when they went off the trail and it became too dark for them to make it back down.

They weren’t hurt, but crews had to climb up in the dark to rescue them.
