Plymouth WW2 bomb found in garden detonated at sea
A 500kg (1,102lb) German World War Two bomb that forced the evacuation of thousands of people in Plymouth has been detonated at sea.
The unexploded device was found in a garden on St Michael Avenue on Tuesday, sparking four days of disruption.
On Friday police closed roads and rail and bus services were stopped as the bomb was transported 1.4 miles (2.3km) through the city’s streets.
The device was taken by boat beyond the breakwater and detonated at 21:51 GMT. No further details of the disposal have been given. (BBC news)
