Man Finds Old Grenade While Raking His Lawn

PARADISE, Calif. (AP) ― Authorities said Tuesday that a Paradise homeowner discovered an old grenade in his front yard while raking his lawn.

A police sergeant said the grenade was either from the Korean or Vietnam war era.

It still had the safety pin in place and could have been used as a practice grenade for training.

The grenade was taken to another location on Monday for disposal.
