Remains recovered from New Orleans hotel, almost 10 months after collapse


(CNN) The remains of a construction worker have been recovered from the collapsed Hard Rock hotel in New Orleans, Mayor LaToya Cantrell said Saturday, 10 months after the disaster. Quinnyon Wimberly, 36, was one of three construction workers killed in October, though only one body was recovered at the time. Wimberly's family was at the wreckage site Saturday while his remains were extracted, officials said. "This has been a long journey, but the longest journey has been for the families mostly impacted by this collapse," Cantrell said. A stretcher-like bucket attached to a crane carried down the the remains, video from CNN affiliate WDSU shows.
