5:55 p.m. UPDATE (AP) — Authorities have recovered the body of a second worker who was killed when an Omaha manufacturing plant collapsed.

Interim Fire Chief Bernard Kanger said authorities retrieved the body from the International Nutrition building at 3:45 p.m. Tuesday. Kanger says authorities believe no other people are still in the building.

The accident killed two and injured 17.

Kanger says the two killed were found on the second floor, but the bodies were not near each other.

Authorities say they recovered the body of 53-year-old Keith Everett, of Omaha, on Monday night. The second worker’s identity has not been released.

Thirty-eight people were in the animal feed and supplement plant on Monday when it collapsed. Authorities were still trying to determine a cause.

 

(AP) — Search teams have resumed the effort to recover the body of a worker killed in a southwestern Omaha industrial accident.

Omaha Fire Department Battalion Chief Tim McCaw says the search resumed about 8 a.m. Tuesday, as temperatures hovered just below zero.

Witnesses at the International Nutrition livestock feed manufacturing plant reported hearing an explosion before a fire and partial collapse of the three-level plant Monday morning killed two people and injured 17 others.

The body of 53-year-old Keith Everett, of Omaha, was recovered from the mangled structure Monday evening. But a combination of strong winds, cold temperatures and the dangerous rubble forced rescuers to suspend operations before the second victim could be recovered. That second victim’s name has not yet been released.

At least four of the 10 workers sent to hospitals after an explosion and partial collapse at an Omaha manufacturing plant have already been released.

Authorities say seven other workers were treated at the scene.
