Roundup 2 Body in Potting Mix
A Croatian man found the skeleton of a Nazi soldier while sifting through a bag of soil for his new garden.
Bruno Marincic had bought the soil from construction workers who had helped build a nearby highway.
Mr Marincic, from Rupe, was spreading it on his garden when he spotted the remains.
He said: "I was shocked and scared at first. When I took a closer look and saw some metal with the bones I realised they were identification plates showing the bones were those of a Wehrmacht soldier."
Local historians said the tags showed the soldier was a member of the Nazi army's 188th division which fought in the area under the command of General Ludwig Kibler.
