Toddler Brings Live Grenade Home

Boise, Idaho A Washington State Patrol bomb squad responded to a home after a toddler found a grenade in the front yard of his home, according to the Grant County Sheriff's Office.

In a terrifying sequence of events, the child reportedly entered his family home holding the live munition. Bomb squad technicians determined that it was indeed a live WWII-era grenade which appeared to have been outside for quite a while.

The bomb squad safely removed the device to a rural area north of town to dispose of it. No word as to how the ordnance got there or how long it had been in the family's yard.
