Military Hand Grenade Found In Boonsboro

Resident discovered the device while cleaning out his garage.


Boonsboro, Md. (KM) It was probably quite a surprise for a Boonsboro man who was cleaning out his garage on Sunday evening; he found a military hand grenade.

Fire fighters from Boonsboro responded to 18,820 Lappans Road, along with the Maryland State Fire Marshal’s Office Bomb Squad.

Technicians were at the scene for three hours before making the device safe.

No one was injured.
