Unexploded WWII bomb to be defused near German soccer stadium

A statement from the city of Mainz said the 500-kilogram (1,102-pound) American bomb was found during construction work on Wednesday, before the local area was evacuated. Mainz 05's MEWA Arena sits just outside the 750m (roughly 2,460 feet) evacuation radius, but the club moved its Friday press conference to Thursday after the discovery.
