Paul Ainsworth. AN unexploded Second World War bomb has been destroyed in a controlled explosion in Co Down, two weeks after another WW2 device was found in the county. The latest device, confirmed to have been a long-range WW2 mortar, was discovered in the Seafields area of Warrenpoint on Tuesday afternoon. A number of nearby homes were evacuated as a security operation got underway shortly after 3.20pm. A PSNI spokesperson said officers “appreciate this may cause some disruption, however keeping people safe is paramount and we will not take any risks”.
