德國建築工人觸碰二戰遺留炸彈死亡

A World War II bomb or mine exploded in a western German town on Friday, killing the driver of a bulldozer and wounding 13 other people, police said.

警方報告，上週五，一枚二戰時遺留的炸彈在德國西部城市爆炸，挖掘機司機當場死亡，另有13人受傷。

The explosion happened in an industrial area of Euskirchen, near Bonn, at a property used by a construction firm to sort and dispose of rubble. It wasn't immediately clear whether the explosives had long been buried in the ground or had inadvertently been brought to the site in a delivery of demolition waste.

這次爆炸發生在奧伊斯基興的工業區，靠近波恩，受害的建築公司當時正在現場處理建築垃圾，現在還不能確定炸藥是早已埋在地下還是臨時和建築廢料一起被帶到了現場。

The bulldozer driver was fatally injured after his vehicle hit the device and two people who were close by suffered serious injuries. Another 11 people who were in the area were lightly injured.

挖掘機撞到炸藥時司機當場死亡，距離他最近的兩名工作人員受傷嚴重，現場另有11人受輕傷。

Windows, roofs and doors as far as 400 meters away were damaged in the blast, police said. Explosives experts were working to determine exactly what the device was.

方圓四百米內均遭到破壞，窗戶、屋頂和門框被爆炸的氣浪掀翻，警察稱，炸彈專家正在現場工作，以確定炸彈型號。

Unexploded World War II-era bombs are still discovered frequently in Germany, though it is rare for those finds to result in death or injury.

德國經常發生二戰遺留炸彈爆炸事件，但幾乎從未導致人員傷亡。
