An unexploded shell found under a Dunedin house this morning will be dealt with by a bomb squad later today. The item, which appears to be an undetonated artillery shell, was discovered underneath a house on Corstorphine Rd about 7.40am, police said. “The shell is likely to have been under the house for a considerable amount of time, and a cordon has been put in place at the scene while its removal is assessed,” a police spokeswoman said. Police considered evacuating neighbours, but deemed it unnecessary.
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.
