House renovators find WWII bomb
Bomb disposal experts have safely removed a suspected World War II device which was found in a house in Cornwall.
Builders renovating the property in Marlborough Road, Falmouth, found the suspected incendiary bomb while they were working near the roof.
Bomb disposal experts from Plymouth were sent to the scene to examine it and make it safe.
Police were told to evacuate the buildings on either side, but they were empty at the time.
