“If you ever come across anything suspicious like this item, please do not pick it up, contact your local law and/or enforcement agency for assistance”.
Explosives experts contracted by the Department of National Defence are back in North Vancouver, searching the Blair Rifle Range lands for lost and forgotten munitions. Though the area is mostly trees and trails now, it was an active military training site from the 1930s to the 1960s, where soldiers handled mortars and grenades, some of which failed to detonate.
Mounties are reminding anyone who comes across explosives or live ammunition to call police for assistance and to not handle them yourself.
