Food Plant Roof Collapses

Investigators are trying to figure out what caused the roof to collapse at a Fremont, Ohio food-packing plant Wednesday, killing one worker and trapping another for several hours. 

35-year old Nate Kern was on the roof of the Fremont Company when it fell--he was crushed to death under chunks of concrete.

The Fremont Company processes and sells sauerkraut and other foods.
