Authorities On the Look-Out For Beach "Shell" Collectors

Dorest, United Kingdom Some people go to the beach to pick up sea shells, but two men in Worbarrow Bay in Dorset were recently seen collecting shells of a completely different nature. Reports from a concerned beachgoer claim the two were carrying two unexploded projectiles over their shoulders.

The photograph below shows the alleged munitions collectors walking off the beach carrying the munitions from the area which is part of the 7,000-acre Lulworth Military Range used by the Army for tank firing practice.

According to a spokeswoman for the Ministry of Defense, it is unknown at this point if the munitions are live or not. The spokeswoman also stated in a press releases that "The men should immediately contact the police who will arrange for bomb disposal experts to examine the shells." A search continues for the two men.
