None
FRANKFURT, Germany—About 50,000 people are heading back to their homes in the northern German city of Hannover after bomb-disposal experts defused three World War II bombs discovered at a construction site.
Officials initially suspected there were five bombs but investigation of what were suspected to be bomb sites in a nearby park turned up nothing.
Around 1,000 people used shelters provided by officials during the nine-hour evacuation Sunday. City museums dropped their admission charge and community centers organized events for children and seniors.
