Farm Worker Found Dead In Field

A migrant farm worker who didn't come back with his corn detasseling crew has been found dead in Hall County, Nebraska field. 

The Hall County Sheriff's Office says on Wednesday, they were told that 52 year old Cruz Urias-Beltran, of San Luis, Arizona, had not come back from the field he had been working in. Emergency crews and fellow workers searched for Urias-Beltran, but called off the search around 10 :00 when it got too dark to continue the search.

The search resumed Thursday morning when more than 100 people began a row-by-row search of the field. Urias-Beltran's body was found shortly after 12:00 Thursday afternoon.

No foul play is suspected and an autopsy has been ordered.
