Shell Shocked

Explosive Truth Has Been Revealed

A landscaping crew about to grind a tree stump in Key West, Florida, discovered 30 World War II mortar shells buried on land once owned by the US Navy. A worker hit and broke one of the shells, but it did not detonate. About a dozen homes were evacuated and cars cleared from the area while a bomb squad removed the explosives on Friday.

FOOTNOTE: Blast one out, turn off the lights.
