Branden Colvin, 42, was found on Saturday a week after the building in downtown Davenport, Iowa, collapsed, Sarah Ott, chief strategy officer for the City of Davenport, confirmed to ABC News.

Theo Wargo/Getty Images(NEW YORK) The family of Marvin Gaye s co-writer on "Let s Get it On" intends to appeal a verdict in Manhattan federal court for Ed Sheeran, according to a court filing Thursday.
The family of Ed Townsend filed a notice of appeal after it lost a copyright infringement case involving Sheeran s "Thinking Out Loud" last month.
The document did not say on what grounds the Townsend family would appeal but it did signal the family would challenge the outcome and several rulings made by the judge.
A Manhattan jury decided in Sheeran s favor in May when they found that the singer did not engage in willful copyright infringement following a trial that saw Sheeran playing the guitar and singing in court.
"I m obviously very happy with the outcome of the case. And it looks like I m not having to retire from my day job after all," Sheeran told reporters outside the courthouse at the time. "But at the same time, I m unbelievably frust

The caste system started as a social construct created over 3,000 years ago in South Asia. People are born into distinct groups, that came with their own social hierarchy and political and economic status, according to Anupama R
