Body of missing Nebraska railroad worker found

(AP) 2 hours ago

LINCOLN, Neb. A lawyer says searchers have found the body of a railroad worker who has been missing since floodwaters washed out a bridge in northeast Nebraska.

Nebraska Central Railroad attorney Bob Bach says the body of 38-year-old Jeff Scholl has been found under the wreckage of the bridge near the city of Norfolk. Bach says crews are working early Friday to retrieve the body.

Scholl and two other workers were cast into the swollen Elkhorn River when the bridge collapsed in the floods Tuesday. The other two survived.

The river receded Thursday, but forecasters have warned that heavy rains expected in the coming days could cause it to swell again.

That name doesn't ring any bells, I don't think he was there when I was. Still, it's a shame. That place is pretty close knit.

I see the Nebraska Central is already preparing for litigation.
