“If you ever come across anything suspicious like this item, please do not pick it up, contact your local law enforcement agency for assistance”
Second anti-tank mine detonated in a matter of days on South Devon beach. The coastguard team discovered that one of the items was an anti-tank mine whilst the other was inert but both objects had been heavily corroded and appear indistinguishable. One coastguard shared pictures of the items and said: “It’s pretty much impossible to tell the difference even to the trained eye, isn’t it?” So, if you see anything like this please call 99 and ask for the coastguard.
Artificieri intervengono nuovamente sulla spiaggia di Slapton Sands a causa del rinvenimento di una mina anticarro. Anche in questo caso l’ordigno è stato spiaggiato dalla marea.
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.
