CLEVELAND (AP) - Investigators used shovels, a sledgehammer and a concrete-busting drill today in a renewed search of the home of a registered sex offender where 10 bodies and a skull have been found. Police say no additional bodies were found.

Searchers with plastic gloves, surgical-style masks and head-to-toe hazardous-materials protective suits concentrated on Anthony Sowell's inner-city home and an adjacent yard. They combed the area for much of the day before hauling off carpeting and a van full of evidence bags.

Police say no additional search is planned.

Sowell has been accused of luring women to his home with the promise of alcohol or drugs. Authorities say he then strangled them and left their bodies in his house or buried in the backyard.
