Dozens of residents have been evacuated after reports of a grenade found in the garden of a home in north Manchester. Emergency services were called to Norville Avenue, Moston, on 2 February 2023 at around 10:30am. Greater Manchester Police, fire crews, and bomb disposal experts were all present at the scene and confirmed a ‘viable grenade’ was found. Residents in nearby homes were evacuated and a cordon was put in place on the street. The grenade was later found to be a ‘training device’ which ‘did not contain explosives or a detonator’, GMP added. People were allowed back into their homes once the scene had been declared safe. In a statement, a GMP spokesperson said: “It was determined that, although a viable grenade, it was in fact a training device and did not contain explosives or detonator. Surrounding properties were evacuated as a precaution and residents later returned to their homes, once the scene had been declared safe.”
If you find anything that appears to be an explosive device, do not touch it, leave it where it is and call the police. We will contact the appropriate agencies to properly dispose of the item.
