BELGRADE, Yugoslavia (Reuters) -- A Montenegrin family thought a World War II artillery shell was the ideal replacement for a broken table leg -- until it exploded, injuring eight people as they were about to eat a meal.
The Miskovic family in the town of Danilovgrad was preparing the local specialty of grilled pork fat on the table when the old shell went off over the weekend, the Yugoslav daily Vecernje Novosti reported.
