Because she was worried the farmer could drive over it with his tractor, she decided to take the hand grenade home. She placed it then in her front yard.

The police warn that any ammunition found should not be touched at all. In any case, the emergency number 113 should be called immediately. The location should be secured, if possible, until the police arrive. They further warn that smallest amount of explosives can suffice to lose a hand.

In this case, the “mine sweeping” service of the army was called.
