UK court: Richard III to be buried in Leicester

FILE - This undated photo made available on Monday Feb. 4, 2013 by the University of Leicester, England, shows the remains found underneath a car park in Leicester, which have been declared "beyond reasonable doubt" to be the long lost remains of England's King Richard III, missing for 500 years. Britain's High Court ruled Friday May 23, 2014 that the monarch, who was killed in battle in 1485, should be buried in the city of Leicester, where his skeleton was found under a parking lot in 2012. A group of distant relatives wanted him interred in the northern England city of York, to which he had strong ties.
