KINSGLEY, Iowa (AP) - Authorities have found the body of a Remsen man in a car partially submerged in the Little Sioux River near Kingsley in northwest Iowa.

The Plymouth County sheriff's office says deputies found the body of the 29-year-old Michael Ahlers on Monday while investigating a report of a car in the river.

Ahlers' family notified officials on Sunday that he had not been seen since early Saturday.

Officials don't believe foul play is a factor in Ahlers' death but the investigation continues.
