Residents described how their houses shook after an enormous bang as metal detectorists discovered an unexploded WW2 bomb. North Yorkshire Police were alerted by the public to a possible ‘unexploded bomb’ while they were using a metal detector on the outskirts of Harrogate. Specialist officers were called to the scene, with what appeared to be a well-aged grenade laying on the ground. Police confirmed that an unexploded World War Two grenade had been found – and a 100-metre cordon was put in place.
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.
