Second Hong Kong WW2 bomb in a week sparks evacuation

A second wartime bomb was discovered at a construction site in the heart of Hong Kong within a week, prompting thousands of people to evacuate on Wednesday and stores to shutter. Police sealed off parts of the busy Wan Chai district and ferry services crossing the Victoria Harbour were suspended as experts worked to unearth the explosive, an operation that would likely continue overnight. The bomb was found at the same construction site along the harbour front as a 450-kilogram explosive that was successfully defused on Saturday.
