Mystery missile probes Naples mystery object found near city
Italian military experts studied a mystery projectile in a Naples suburb. They ruled it is not a ballistic missile or space rocket part and believe it may have been fired at sea from 20 to 25 miles away. The object, 2 1 4 feet long, 8 inches wide, bore 1942 and an eagle-and-cross insignia, and carried explosives only if the detonator cap was missing. It plunged into the ground about 100 feet from a house, prompting a cautious official investigation.
