💨 Abstract

A fisherman in Birmingham, believed to be in his 50s, is thought to have taken five unexploded hand grenades found near a canal while magnet fishing. Two of the grenades were safely detonated, but the man, described as having grey hair and wearing green trousers, is urged to hand in the remaining ones. Police emphasize the significant safety and environmental risks posed by these weapons, which become more sensitive with age.
