Dig begins for the remains of dozens of children at a long-closed Native American boarding school in Nebraska

Archeologists are digging in a central Nebraska field trying to find the bodies of some 80 children who were buried more than a century ago at a Native American boarding school. Crews are using shovels, trowels and smaller tools to find any remains. The children once attended the Genoa Indian Industrial School west of Omaha.
