Hundreds of people have been forced out of their homes in Plymouth after a suspected unexploded World War Two bomb was found in a back garden. A 200m (650ft) cordon was put in place – and a major incident declared – after the device was found at the property on St Michael Avenue, Keyham. Devon and Cornwall Police said on Tuesday evening the cordon was likely to be in place for about 36 hours Ch Supt Matt Longman said the priority was to keep people safe. The first thing to appreciate is just how much impact this has had on the people of Plymouth, particularly in this area,” said the police chief. There’s a huge amount of gratitude from us for the patience people have shown, just working with us, and we ask people to continue that throughout the evening. Right now, I just think I want the public to know we’ve got all the right people here, it takes time to get the expertise needed to deal with a situation like this. We’re here, we’re trying to work through how we’re going to deal with this, but the number one has got to be keeping people safe.”
