Bomb Scare!

[DJ Tucker]

here in Banbury just down the road from me we had a bomb scare. there are road workers digging the ground up when they hit something hard and heard a hissing sound. first they thought gas but the smell was not right then as they uncovered more it turned out to be a bomb. so the bomb squad was called and now these guys are in hospital as the gas leaking is fatal. so far the guys are ok as are the supermarket workers next as they were also evacuated

This unexploded ordinance from The Blitz?

no idea but the guys got a scare they'll never forget.

I tried to look it up but had no success. Can you point me in the direction of the story?

Funny, the BATF was called out to a suburb here in Houston for a RPG.

actually turns out to be a anti-tank grenade from a ww2 munitions plant. and they hit the grenade and it leaked from chemicals that was harmful to people.

Anti-tank grenade probably has pretty big boom. Glad no one was hurt. Thanks for posting a link to the story.
