04.06.2010 WWII Nazi arms ship in Baltic

A sunken German World War II barge loaded with over 10,000 explosive weapons has been found off the coast of Kaliningrad. The ship, that sank just two kilometers off the coast, is so crammed with bombs that officials say they will need at least three years to make the wreck and its cargo safe. Baltiysk is in Russia's Kaliningrad region - a scene of intense fighting in World War II.
