A World War II bomb, weighing 500 pounds, was discovered during construction in Bratislava, Slovakia. This prompted the evacuation of several city blocks, including areas near a major bridge. Public transportation and traffic were halted while experts prepared to defuse the bomb, discovered Monday evening near an oil refinery that was a WWII target. The bomb's defusal was planned for midday Tuesday.
