Smuggler attempts to leave country with 100 artifacts

Seven Serbian citizens were traveling from Pozarevac to Vienna, Austria, in the Mercedes van with Austrian license plates.

The artifacts were found in a plastic bag, wrapped in newspaper, an include 77 metal coins, 20 stone objects with reliefs, and five metal objects "reminiscent of spear tips, neck ornaments, and buckles."

The suspect, who was driving the van, said that he received the objects "from an acquaintance in Vienna" and took them to Pozarevac, but that, "because nobody took them over," he decided to return them to Austria.
