Bombs From World War II
In 2017, an entire neighborhood in California had to be evacuated after authorities found a cache of World War II explosives in the backyard of an abandoned home. After the homeowner who was a World War II veteran passed away, transients moved into the vacant house.
The sheriff’s department was responding to a call about a suspicious car parked in front of the house and that’s when they made the discovery. The bomb squad analyzed the items which included artillery shells, bullets, grenades, and mortar rounds. Most of the devices were duds but some were still active. Thankfully, no one was hurt. Talk about explosive finds!
