Authorities confirmed that an old hand grenade unearthed at a West Yorkshire dwelling “was not live.” The discovery of the device occurred on Friday at a property located on Hillside Close in Addingham, near Ilkley. This finding necessitated the precautionary evacuation of several nearby homes after police received a call just before 16:00 GMT. A security perimeter, which had been established for the duration of army disposal officers’ presence, was removed approximately at 18:30, and the public received thanks for their patience.
