Controlled Explosion for Grenade Found in Birmingham Park

Just a day after the discovery of an unexploded shell in Stechford, the Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) team was back in Birmingham to deal with a grenade.  The grenade was found in a park in the Bordesley Green district, prompting Police to evacuate several local residents and close off a section of road.

The EOD undertook a controlled explosion of the device in the park.
