The state apparently has broadened its investigation of the farm linked to an E. Coli outbreak that sickened at least 8 people. State health officials say they traced the outbreak to unpasteurized milk sold by the Michael Hartmann farm in southern Minnesota.

Investigators have now conducted a second search of the farm in Gibbon.

Reporter Mark Steil talked with Minnesota Public Radio's Tom Crann about the investigation.
