Seven Hills (Ohio): Former Nazi death camp guard John Demjanjuk was taken from his Ohio home and deported to Germany where he faces charges of helping murder 29,000 Jews in World War II.
Demjanjuk, 89, appeared to be crying as was carried from his house on a stretcher yesterday and driven away in a private ambulance past a small crowd which had gathered nearby.
He was boarded onto what sources said was a Munich-bound air ambulance flight which departed as the sun was setting over Cleveland's Burke Lakefront Airport at 7:13 pm (2313
GMT.)
His family said they would not be making any further statements and US officials also declined to comment.
"We assume from what we know at the moment, that he will probably arrive in Germany tomorrow," justice ministry spokesman Ulrich Staubigl said on Monday.
