Someone stole the remains of Jewish victims of the Holocaust in a newly discovered mass grave in Odessa, Ukraine, according to a July 23, 2008 article in the local newspaper "15 Minut." Construction workers found the remains on Monday while digging near the city's Megadom. The Nazis shot 25,000 people on that site and buried them in unmarked graves. Local residents photographed and videotaped the grisly discovery, but sometime during Monday night, cars came to the site and took the remains away. The city's deputy mayor responded to complaints from the Jewish community by ordering police to guard the site and suspending construction there. Police are investigating the incident.
