Our hearts go out to the Waterloo, Iowa community after this tragic accident Monday. Rand Renner, 68, an employee of East Central Iowa Co-op, died after becoming trapped in a grain bin.
Rescue crews were called to the scene at about 11:30 a.m. Monday to try to save Renner, who had become trapped in soybeans. Firefighters and co-op employees worked for two hours, cutting holes in the bin and using a vacuum to drain it, but did not reach Renner in time.
