Pinasabog ang nadiskubreng World War II bomb sa Exeter, England matapos ilikas ang mahigit 2,600 katao noong Sabado nang hapon.
Ayon sa awtoridad, ang mga manggagawa sa isang building site ng private land malapit sa University of Exeter campus ang nakakita ng bomba noong Biyernes at kaagad na ipinaalam sa Devon and Cornwall Police.
Pahayag ni Inspector Sean Roper ng Devon and Cornwall Police, "It’s approximately 2.5 metres in length by about 70cm in width. "It’s not uncommon for this area, to find World War Two explosives, but one of this kind is uncommon so we’re taking all the precautions we need to make sure everyone is safe in the area.
"We’re fully aware that this is probably decades old but the moving of this item does pose a risk and we need to make sure we do everything we can to support the locals."
Nag-iwan din umano ng crater ang pagsabog ng bomba at nabagsakan ng mga metal debris ang ilang gusali. Pahayag ng Devon and Cornwall Police, “Debris, including large metal objects, were thrown in the blast, some of which landed on nearby roofs, which require the use of a crane to remove."
