Missing Workers Found Dead At Japan Nuclear Plant

Effort to plug up leak of radioactive water into Pacific Ocean fails

RIKUZENTAKATA, Japan  — Two missing Fukushima nuclear plant workers were found dead on Sunday as more highly radioactive water spilled into the sea and authorities struggled to seal the leak.

The two workers — a 21-year-old and a 24-year-old — had been missing since a massive March 11 earthquake and tsunami, but their bodies were discovered only last week at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear complex.
