ELK RUN HEIGHTS, Iowa (AP) - Authorities say they have found a stolen semitrailer that had been loaded with margarine, but the margarine is missing.

The trailer was stolen Dec. 10 from a truck stop in Elks Run, near Waterloo.The margarine, valued at about $50,000, had been bound for a Target warehouse in Cedar Falls.
Officials with the Black Hawk County sheriff's office say the person who stole the trailer remains at large.
