Dodge County. By Brielle Bredsten. A live hand grenade was discovered by True North Goodwill staff in a donation box sent from the organization’s Duluth location on Saturday, Jan. 27. We don’t know exactly where it came from because our donations are put in bins,” Ashland True North’s Assistant Manager Homer Williams said. “When you put your hand in, you never know what you’re going to grab.” Donated items come from Duluth’s Goodwill branch each Wednesday, and are usually reviewed by staff there, Williams said. The explosive was found by a sorting staff at the Ashland store around 1:15 p.m. It was immediately given to Williams. Based on a Google search, staff believe it was a Japanese Type 99 hand grenade from World War II.
