From Correspondent Nic Robertson
PRISTINA, Kosovo (CNN) -- A Serbian Orthodox church under
construction in downtown Pristina was rocked by an explosion
early Sunday morning.
The explosion, which caused only superficial damage and
apparently no injuries, took place at the entrance to the
church shortly after 1 a.m.
Several dozen British paratroopers, who provide security in
the area, went inside the church to investigate, then later
came running out after finding other explosive devices. They
moved the crowd outside back about 100 yards and called in
bomb disposal experts.
