KFOR defuses grenade in Obilic | 20:17 | Beta

OBILIC -- Tuesday – KFOR troops have defused a hand grenade thrown into the yard of an elderly couple in the village of Obilic.

The couple say they became aware of the grenade during the day, but have no idea how it got there.

Only fifteen Serbian families remain in the part of Obilic where the couple live. Three members of one family were killed in the village last year, before their house was set on fire.

Police and international peacekeepers have failed to find those responsible.
