Residents Evacuated after Suspect UXO Found at Construction Site

Warwickshire Village, England Construction workers uncovered a suspicious looking item and promptly notified the authorities who responded and evacuated the area in order to safely examine the device. After some investigating, the responding British Army EOD unit was able to determine that the device did not contain explosives (the exact identification of the item was not reported). After EOD gave the "all clear", the nearby residents were allowed to return to their homes and construction safely continued.

Although the item did not turn out to be hazardous, the workers were thanked for doing the right thing and practicing safety first.
