World War II-era mine causes big blast in Brazil

None

Workers repairing the streets of Brazilian coastal town came across an old sea mine with more punch than anyone expected.

 

A bulldozer driver carted away the big round mine that is believed to date from World War II. It was then taken to a beach that seemed to be a safe distance from the town of Maragogi and officials blew it up. (AP)
