Church Says "Thanks, But No Thanks" for the Donation

Allentown, Pennsylvania The Allentown bomb squad and a Pennsylvania state bomb technician responded to a South Whitehall Township church after someone dropped off a box containing a WW I-era military ordnance to be sold at the church's garage sale.

The item, identified as a detonator for a piece of artillery, led to the evacuation of the parking lot as the bomb squad safely removed the item from the scene for further analysis and proper disposal.
