Chicago, Illinois The Chicago Police Bomb Squad responded to Original Jimmy's Red Hots hot dog stand in the Humboldt Park neighborhood of Chicago for reports of a "suspicious object" found in a bag. An update from police later indicated that the object was a hand grenade.

The Bomb Squad safely removed the device to determine if it was inert or active, but they were treating it as live until it could be evaluated. There was no indication where the munition came from or how long it had been at the stand.

Virginia Beach, Virginia A dedication ceremony for the new Navy Special Operations Memorial was held by Explosive Ordnance Disposal Group 2 (EODGRU 2) at Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek-Fort Story. The memorial features a granite arch with plaques honoring 55 fallen Navy EOD Technicians and 28 Navy Divers who made the ultimate sacrifice since 1942.

The event included a flyover by Strike Fighter Squadron 106, speeches from Navy leaders, the reading of the names, a wreath-laying, and a 21-gun salute. Chief EOD Technician (Ret.) Patrick Flanigan, who played a key role in its development, highlighted the memorial's design, which features a healing garden and inscribed brick walkway. The memorial serves as a tribute not only to fallen warriors but also promotes healing for current service members.
