The Hennepin County medical examiner’s office identified the remains as Scott Sathers, 30, of Maple Grove.
Sathers was on his way home from work in enrollment services at Capella University, following his usual route, when the Interstate 35W bridge crumpled amid evening rush hour traffic.
Divers continued to search for the last person on the list of missing, Greg Jolstad, 45, of Mora.
A vehicle also was pulled from the rubble on Sunday. Bad weather on Saturday had hampered recovery efforts at the site.
