World War II bomb safely removed in Poland.

 

Polish police say a 500-kilogram (1,102-pound) German ST-500 bomb leftover from World War II has been found and removed safely from the eastern town where it recently was unearthed.

The bomb was found during a road project. Bomb disposal experts loaded it on a special truck Sunday and were transporting it to a test range, where they plan to destroy it.

About 10,000 people who were evacuated during the removal operation in the town of Bialystok are returning home.
