Rob Schmitz MIKA and WARSAW,
The hike to the site of what local authorities believe to be Russia's latest act of rail sabotage on Polish soil leads police officer Piotr Pokorski trudging through a couple of feet of snow across a stark white farm field, through a thatch of dead cattails and across a frozen creek before he pauses underneath an embankment.
"The explosion happened here," he says, pointing to a small section of railroad track that catches the frozen sunlight, reflecting a bronze-colored sheen from a recent repair. "And this section of track was damaged. A train engineer noticed it just in time to stop his train, and then he reported it to us. Fortunately, nobody was injured."
