Police find chariot in antiquities raid

Macedonian police have seized parts of a bronze burial chariot dating from the second century AD as part of an operation to recover stolen antiquities.

"The found objects are only part of a ceremonial Roman period chariot. It is believed that the other parts have been sold on the black market," police spokesman Ivo Kotevski said.

More than 4,000 artefacts have been recovered since June.
