Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania: Bomb found: Rosenow is cleared to defuse

Rosenow (dpa/mv) - An aerial bomb from the Second World War ensures the evacuation of the village of Rosenow and large-scale diversions in the Mecklenburg Lake District. As a police spokeswoman said on Monday, the dud was discovered on Sunday during earthworks. The landowners actually wanted to build a fence.

Experts from the ammunition recovery service are to defuse the 100-kilogram bomb on Tuesday afternoon. To do this, the entire village - which has almost 1,000 inhabitants - had to be cleared by shortly after noon, including the school and daycare center. Federal highway 104 will be closed and traffic will be diverted via neighboring federal highways. Due to a possible pressure wave, all windows should also remain in the tilted position, it said. There should be accommodation for the citizens in the neighboring villages.
