Relics in two places
Tyrol: Children find grenade with metal detector
Two grenades were found this weekend in Tyrol. First, on All Souls' Day, two children in Scheffau (Kufstein district) came across the war relic while playing with a metal detector. A day later, a 51-year-old local found a grenade in Stanzach in the Außerfern region.
The two children were searching for metal objects with a metal detector at Hintersteinersee in the early hours of Saturday afternoon. Suddenly the device must have gone off. At a depth of around one meter, the two found a "bomb-like" object around 50 centimetres long, according to the police.
The discovery site was cordoned off for a short time (150 m) until the demining service could be consulted.
