A person has been named as a suspect in the disappearance of Dylan Rounds. Around May 28, 2022, the 19-year-old Utah man who had just finished high school went missing near the border between Utah and Nevada.
Court documents from a different federal weapons case say that Dylan’s 58-year-old neighbor, James Brenner, is a possible suspect in his disappearance. Documents show that Brenner lived in a trailer on the property near Rounds’ farm and talked to Dylan.
Brenner is Dylan’s family’s neighbor and a “family friend.” His mother, Candice Cooley, said that the suspect was someone her son “knew.”
According to court records, he has a history of hurting people on purpose and shooting people on purpose. He has also been convicted three times for being a felon with a gun.
A neighbor of Dylan’s named “DH” in court documents said that Brenner asked him to hide three black powder guns and a.22-caliber rifle without a serial number at some point after Rounds went missing.
Brenner admitted to having guns on May 21 and was given a prison sentence of 33 months for the crime.
Brenner couldn’t get out on bail, so he went back to the Weber County jail. The original date for his trial was September. But on Monday in Box Elder County, he will go back to state court. He is also being charged with more gun crimes.
Search for Dylan Rounds continues in Utah
Dylan Rounds, now 19, moved to Utah from Idaho three years ago. He last talked to his parents on the morning of May 28, the day before he went missing. His parents say that he wanted to start his own farm and that he went to his remote farmland to plant crops and then disappeared.
There will be a reward for anyone who gives information about Dylan.
