BLOOMINGTON, Minn. (AP) -- Authorities are investigating the death of a contractor whose body was found at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.

Airport police and Hennepin County sheriff's deputies found the body of 52-year-old Robert Germundson about noon Saturday.

The body was in Concourse E above the ceiling where utilities are located.

Airport spokesman Pat Hogan says family members had contacted authorities after Germundson did not return home from work Friday.

An official with Premier Electric tells the station that Germundson supervised electric crews and had worked for the company since 1985.

The cause of death hasn't been released, but authorities say it does not appear to be foul play.
