Incident in Finland

[Tmine35]

Heard in last night TV news that a 27 years old man died and 24 years old injured in explosion when they were handling an unexploded artillery shell in a garage in Kemi, northern Finland. According to police they have collected quite a quantity of unexploded ordnance from WW2 battlefields. No further details yet. WHY DO PEOPLE NEVER LEARN:tinysmile_angry_t:

Police Pictures in news site show Nebelwerfer rockets,152mm artillery rounds,75mm artillery rounds,50mm,81mm and 120mm mortar rounds and allkinds of other stuff.Rusty stuff...

Very stupid overall.

Here 2 pictures which local police just pubished about the items collected from site today. In my opinion just scrap metal with no collectable or commercial value.

Maybe, but i count about 1500 euro value with a quick scan. So money talks again.
