Over 30 'WWII-era bombs' found under Chinese farmer's house

BEIJING. April 3. KAZINFORM Police in southwest China's Yunnan Province have discovered more than 30 bombs, thought to have been left over from WWII, under a local farmer's house, the China Daily reported on Friday.

Wang Hexiong first suspected something was amiss several years ago when he noticed that magnets would slide off of his table and stick to the floor. He finally called in the authorities to investigate the phenomenon. Police subsequently found 31 bombs under the farmer's home. The explosive devices were removed and detonated in a nearby field. Wang had been living in the house for some two decades, Kazinform cites RIA Novosti.
