REMBRANDT, Iowa (AP) - The body of an employee killed in a barn collapse has been recovered from the wreckage in northwest Iowa.

A structural failure early Friday morning at the Rembrandt Foods facility just east of Rembrandt caused a catastrophic collapse of equipment inside the building, Buena Vista County authorities said.

A search for the employee was suspended at 6 p.m. because of safety concerns for the people trying to find the worker, authorities said. The search resumed Saturday, and the worker’s body was recovered around 2 p.m.

The worker’s name and other details about the accident haven’t been released.
